Hi there,

very nice setup imho. I have one question concerning the Antec Fusion case. Do you know if it's possible to use MCE Remote to start/shutdown the system through the remote controler? Does the IR sensor/reciever in the case respond to any remote devices?

I have exactly this one:

armandp · 2008-07-14, 14:10

Yes it should respond to MCE remotes only (or in my case a Logitech 525 acting as a MCE). Starting by remote is also possible depending on how you hooked up the IR device in the case. Shutdown will always work.

Zappza · 2008-07-15, 22:37

Should it be possible to start the PC up from Shutdown/Hibernation mode with the remote, or just the Standby mode?
I can start up from Standby mode with my remote, but not from Hibernation/shutdown.

I can't comment on that personally but i heard that problem before.

Hi guys,I´m new with MP and I have similar configuration of HTPC, antec fusion black,phenom 8650 but asus M3N78-EMH HDMI and multichannel LPCM (8 channels) Its possible.
The question its the controller I´m using harmony 555 and some functions doesn´t work(play,back,FF,RW,etc) and I can´t open the link you put in the first post,can someone give another link or send my a PM or email??
What I have to use/install or configuro to meke this controller works with MP???
thanks!!!

@justernini: you are very interesting. With audio through HDMI can you do HD lossless audio formats ?
Another question is do you know the difference between the 8200 and the 3200 (for movie rendering not games) ?

Thanks

with HDMI it's possible to use lossless audio formats... but DTS-HD isn't supported yet.

difference between 8200/3200... just your own oppinion... the 3200 has (had) some driver problems in combination with MediaPortal GUI... but playback of HD-contents is nearly the same...

Ok so no real difference between the two MBO (i am comparing the GA-MA78GPM-DS2H and the M3N78-EMH HDMI )?
