The LiveCD Forums

Hi there, first of all, i was please to find a such exhaustive list of the available available LiveCDs! Good job!

my comments,
you list MoviX ... it is unclear to me as you refer to which flavor ?
even if you meant all three versions together, the size ranges aren't good.

Could you please add the three different flavors, or if you don't like that idea, correct the sizes... it goes as follow:

eMoviX: ~10MBs, 11MB if you are pessimistic.
MoviX: from ~27MB to 42MB
(in the 42MB ISO, we included the chinese fonts, which are huge. Most intl ISOs are around 27-28MB).
MoviX2: ~49MB

Please note that it's possible to create your own ISOs and strip/remove some stuff you don't want. Especially codecs e.g. rp9dlls, qt6dlls, etc.
You would gain ~9.5MB.

For further details/verification, please refer to our download section:

thanks again for your good index, you made me find some very interesting distros/LiveCDs

Thanks for the clarification, I was confused about the 3 versions and their different sizes. I've updated the list.

thank you for the update, it's appreciated.
keep up the good work!

btw, the are 3 flavors of *MoviX* because they sensibly differ in purpose.
very basically:
eMoviX: minimalistic, mplayer osd menu, fits on a CD with your movie.
MoviX: network support (dhcp, samba/nfs, ftp, internet radios (there's a built-in list but you can add your own), optional telnet), both MoviX menu and mplayer osd menu (you pick the one you want by default), support for disk mounting.
MoviX2: like MoviX but add the X Window Server, gmplayer is used instead of mplayer.

MoviX and MoviX2 are also able to boot from usb sticks, flashcards and harddrives.

All three support remote controls, the dxr3/h+ card, tv-out, playlists, etc.

hope this clarifies.
