| Hello everybody, first of all I would admit that MediaPortal is a really great piece of software. I have compared many different HTPC Programs lately, free and commercial ones, and MP is the only one that fits my needs almost completely. Thanks a lot to the devs and the members of the forums! Without reading the stuff, I couldn't get my Skystar to work. Now it runs flawlessly. Ok, here's my setup. Hardware: Shuttle SB65G2 Barebone P4 3 GHz Northwood CPU 1GB Infineon DDR 400 RAM Maxtor 7B300S0 HDD (300GB SATA) Radeon 9800 Pro 17" TFT Monitor with 12ms (gray/gray) Samsung Panel Logitech 4.1 Speaker System Microsoft MPC Remote Control Technisat Skystar 2 DVB-S TV Card LG DVD ROM Some minor modifications: Replaced the I.C.E Heatpipe fan with a Noiseblocker S2 type. 19db, 50m³/h air exchange Replaced the original PWM with a Shuttle Silent-x Powersupply Replaced the two 40mm Fans in the Powersupply with Pabst 412 ones. The Barebone is very silent now, though the temperatures are not raising above the healty regions. I'm using this setup (beside working ) at my homeoffice. Some Pics: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Nothing spectacular, but I'm very pleased with this setup. Keep on the good work. Regards, C (and please forgive me my bad english please) :? |
