    I bought a "multimedia" set-top box from ebay, but it doesnt do
    anything useful and apparently the manufacturer doesnt exist any more.

    It boots up but nothing seems to be installed on it, so it just says
    non system disk and stops. It looks to be running an x86 processor.
    Opening it up, theres a sigma design em8400 chip on it to do the
    audio/video playback.

    I can probably install linux on it without too much problems, but Im
    wondering if theres any application software (binary ok) that I can run
    that can detect the chip and play a file.
