"Dianemo is designed to bring together all of your digital services, content and media in one powerful but easy to use system. Ranging from a simple and stylish system that sits unobtrusively under your TV, to one that can be extended to every room of your home to suit you and your family's ever changing needs. Another dynamic feature of Dianemo is that it is connected to, and helps manage and protect your broadband service. It has been designed to be upgraded and enhanced on-line so that it will always have the latest services and features

Dianemo can be tailored to fit your budget and can be expanded in small steps as your needs change. For example, you could choose TV and Audio in a couple of rooms to start with and add lighting, security or climate control at a later date. You control what Dianemo can do for you and your family to complement your lifestyle."

Is this built on LinuxMCE? I'm sure I've seen someone from them on the forums.

Hi,

Yes Dianemo is based on LinuxMCE (http://www.linuxmce.org)and we work closely with and support the LinuxMCE community, contributing code, support and hardware.

Dianemo has been optimised for professional installation and is built & updated from our servers. For the most part our customers are people who do not want to self-build a system although we do have customers who self-install too.

All the best
