You can also run MythTV on the backend (recording/storage) and XBMC as 
the frontend player (using DLNA, or I believe there's a MythTV plugin 
for it) - XBMC is available for many platforms.

If installing MythTV seems a bit daunting, and you can install 
clean-slate, try the Mythbuntu pre-built Linux system.
