This looks quite interesting... I've currently got about three full PCs using 
nfs-mounted /video directories. Would be a much nicer solution to use a thin 
client setup.

What video output(s) has the MVP actually got? I've just been reading stuff on 
the web and I've seen composite, S-video, and RGB component mentioned in 
various places. Are there different versions of these things, apart from 
wired / wireless?

Does it really work this well? I'm not too bothered about editing recordings 
from it (use vdrsync for that!) but setting timers would be useful.

Cheers,
