Open source media center Elisa becomes Moovida
Moovida is a cross-platform, open source media center application that runs on Windows, and Linux. A Mac version is in the works. Up until recently the project as known as Elisa, but the team behind the application have given it a new name and a new look.
Some of the new features in Moovida include auto-completion of your media library using the Yes.fm plugin, and the ability to show fan art for media files.
The interface has a sleeker, more professional look, that frankly looks a lot less like Apple's Front Row than the original Elisa user interface. Like Elisa, Moovida provides a 10 foot interface for managing your music, movies, and pictures. You can also use it as a media browser for internet video, music, and photos from a handful of sites.

It's okay, but it could really use some polishing in the media-classifying area. It classifies all my home videos as random films of a similar name.

Really nice Media center, but did not work well with my Vista x64 for some reason....My computer is far more than adequate to run it....

I used Elisa for a little, but on low-end hardware it is REALLY slow. I built an HTPC/Internet TV box for my little brother that had an Atom and 2gb of ram. Elisa CRAWLED. Windows Media Center and XBMC ran far faster...
It was cool though in terms of its looks. Still needs some polish, though in its media indexing...
