I have to get rid of that "comprise", and the phrasing of that last
sentence seems to imply that you can use it without involving any
hardware running Debian.  How about phrasing the boilerplate as:

   Freevo is a complete home theater framework. It can operate as a
   Personal Video Recorder system for saving television input to disk, but
   can also browse and play pictures, music, games, and movies either from
   the hard disk or from CDs and DVDs. Freevo can be used on a regular
   desktop computer using the monitor, mouse, and keyboard, or can turn it
   into a dedicated home theater with a TV (plus remote).
