I'm using a HVR3000 with MediaPortal, but only the DVB-S part works. I don't really mind because that's all I can get at the moment where I am, but when DVB-T is available I'll be wanting to use that as well, so hopefully MP will support the DVB-T part of this card before too long. I don't really care about analogue, I'll just use...

Hi,
anyone have any experience using this card ATI Radeon X800 GT All In Wonder with MP? Any advice and or general opinions? More info here http://www.ebuyer.com/product/98417 (little or no info at ati.com!). It's got DVB-T tuner, DVI-out, DX9 and remote, in theory should be ideal for a small media-box.

as mrkaras has said, the best solution is to keep your austar box and feed the signal to the analog input of your tv card.
As medaust has pointed out, be careul here as most cheaper analog inputs are software encoding, which means that the CPU has to do all the DA conversions. Even on fast systems, this can cause issues. The...

I have just started to put together my first HTPC as i just became a dad and want something to watch at night when...
The power led was wired directly to the 5 volts from the power supply.
The timer uses a schmitt inverter (MC14584 or similar) that drives the relay via a junk box npn. I'll post a PDF doc, then you can see. Very simple. Voodoex has a good solution. I think I'll try that myself.

I think that one HDD is sufficient even if you record and play multiple streams at once. One HDD also consumes less power and produces less noise than two. I recommend you to use SATA. This technology is up to date and wont be more expensive than IDE.
Look at my system specs / my signature for an example of a low noise / low power...

It's definitely possible. The only real limitation you're going to run into will be your video card (whatever it may be). If you're wanting to run an intensive game on one screen and have MP run smoothly on your secondary monitor, you'll need a good video card. Also, you'll want to stay under (well under) 100ft when running an...
