Elisa is a project to create an open source cross platform media center solution. Primary development and deployment platform is Linux and Unix operating systems and also currently support Microsoft Windows and also hope to support Mac OS X in the future. Elisa runs on top of the GStreamer multimedia framework and takes full advantage of hardware acceleration provided by modern graphic cards by using OpenGL APIs. In addition to personal video recorder functionality (PVR) and Music Jukebox support, Elisa will also interoperate with devices following the DLNA standard like Intel’s ViiV systems.

The core Elisa system is licensed under the GPL version 2. The GPL part of Elisa is also available under a commercial licensing agreement from Fluendo. Elisa core plugins are licensed under the MIT license agreement.
