In case you aren't aware of its existence, you might be interested in XBMC. It's a mature (just celebrated its 10th birthday), popular media center app which can be installed on Ubuntu (and other unix-like systems).

You asked if your old server is too slow but neglected to provide any tech specs. I have never used XBMC myself, so even if you provide more info I cannot answer that question. A possibly quick way to find out for yourself is to download their live cd, XBMCbuntu. If the live CD works well, you can choose to install XBMCbuntu from the LiveCD or to install the XBMC package after installing Ubuntu.

Here's a short demo to give you an idea of what to expect from XBMC and a link to an article referenced by the video description:

NAME
uri_urn - URI utilities, URN scheme SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.2 package require uri::urn ?1.1.2? uri::urn::quote url uri::urn::unquote url _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This package provides two commands to quote and unquote the disallowed characters for url using the urn scheme, registers the scheme with the package uri, and provides internal helpers which will be automatically used by the commands uri::split and uri::join of package uri to handle urls using the urn scheme. COMMANDS
uri::urn::quote url This command quotes the characters disallowed by the urn scheme (per RFC 2141 sec2.2) in the url and returns the modified url as its result. uri::urn::unquote url This commands performs the reverse of ::uri::urn::quote. It takes an urn url, removes the quoting from all disallowed characters, and returns the modified urls as its result.
