Hi,
I am not using my Epia-M for HTPC anymore because it died some times ago. ;)
The problem is not the CPU power of the board. DVB and H/W encoding cards work ok. Video playback is more or less ok (see the BUT).
BUT: The onBoard graphics (UniChrome S3) simply spoken is crap! It has no DX9 support nor good VMR9 support. The...

If its a non-oem i believe it should come with a remote, but you should check with the shop you buy it from first.
MP yes.
I think someone was working on a plugin like this?
Yep
Depends on the remote entirely, seems the easiest way to go is the actual MCE2005 remote which has built in support. Could look in other...

Maybe software based cards do, but AFAIK all MPEG2, MCE and BDA cards don't need the external audio connection.
Just buy the cheapest Hauppauge, the 150MCE (50-60 $/Euro) and you're set to go, or take the 500MCE and you have a dual tuner setup...

I would like to add another TV tuner card but i've thing I...
I really disagree with the p4 2.4ghz comment. My MP runs excellent with my config (see sig). Also if you do a search, there are many people running it on an Epia (the soldered on chips).

Hi everybody, I'm looking for a schema to build an IT Transmitter that will be able to switch channel on my Sky DigiBox (the NDS decoder for Sky subscribers).
Do you know any?
I've been looking for it since long time now, but I only found things to buy (and quite expensive too IMHO).

the reply of intel is a real joke, because like Mario said you have to see this as a whole package, software + hardware. The software alone is worth the money!!!
I ordered mine a week ago and every day I send mails like: is it there yet :?
I just can't wait to play with it.

Hi,
You can select it in following way:
Please start the NVIDIA tool, select "Bildschirmauflösungen und Bildwiederholfrequenzen" (sorry I have only the german version).
Press the Hnzf button and the "Benutzerdef. Aufl." Dialog will pop up.
Select the line "Bildwiederholfrequenz" and type in into the field the value of 50...

Actually the XC Cube has 5.1 sound. For digital output there is a SPIDF output on the front and a coaxial output on the back, for 3.5 inch the line and mike in jacks double as surround out and center/sub woofer out.
So all you need is a AGP card which has a s-video out contact.
Cheers

Ok so i'm offically tired of my Leadtek Winfast TV USB II that doesn't record tv show itself but give all the work to my little Pentium III 933Mhz Processor.
So i was looking for something else, something that could encode by itself and would not need the cpu or as little as possible and i saw the Hauppauge WinTv-PVR-250 on sales...

Well, I still haven't built my HTPC as I've been away for Xmas and am still really researching the whole thing. However, I'm still a little confused about what cards do what with MP - I know these are dumb, noobie Q's but it would be good if someone could fill me in on some really basic stuff!
1. If I go for a PVR-350 I understand...
