| Hi, I have the following system: Video Codec: Mpeg2Dec Filter CPU Type: Intel Pentium III - 930MHz Memory: 255 MB Motherboard: 06C4h (Compaq) TV Card Model: MSI 8624 Video Capture TV Card Type: Hardware TV Card Driver: 2.4.0.4 Video Card Model: Nvidia Geforce4 MX 4000 (64 MB) Video Card Driver: 71.89 Video Card Resolution: 1280x1024 Video Render Type: Overlay Audio Card Model: Creative Audigy Audio Processor (WDM) Audio Card Driver: 5.12.1.443 Synopsis:: Now, I need to know if Mediaportal will work with this system? If not, are there alternative systems I could get it to work with(yes, I realize this is a MediaPortal forum. I have to ask though)? Alternatively, what do I need to do with the system? Any help is appreciated highly. I'm very enthusiastic about having a HTPC, but as the total newbie I am I need feedback and help ![]() |

Country: | Absolute minimum I suppose, switch the gf4mx for a 5200 and get another 256mb of ram (another 512mb would be better). Providing that capture card is hardware (cant find a thing about it), it should work acceptably. Obviously the cpu being too slow, timeshifting may not work but it should pass otherwise. |
