XBMC, the best media center for home theater computers, has just released the first beta of the next release, 13.0 (code named Gotham) – go get it!

The feature I’m most excited about? After adding PVR integration in XBMC 12.0 Frodo, commercial skip is now available for those using MythTV as a PVR. That, plus the all new audio engine and and a new version for Android devices have me excited to try this out.

I know what I’ll be doing after work tonight. Sometime in the next few weeks I owe a blog post of my current setup – my last blog post from a few years ago is woefully out of date.
