Hey capitalf, thanks for that link to the FLOSS comparison! Yes, that is pretty close to what I meant. I remember seeing the link, but disregarded it as the data is over two years old. However, I would agree that would be a good foundation to build on. I think there was a bit of over emphasis on Linux solutions. The All-in-One...

Indeed I'm NOT looking for free. I just want to save myself the trips to the store and purchase at my convenience. I'm not a fan of iTunes. MoviePro is interesting and not free, but that doesn't make them legal. Didn't find anything good yet. What a contradiction, one day this will be last article that we will still have to go to...

The rename is there because original the name is refering to Xbox (XB) mediacenter (MC). Because xbmc is more then a mediacenter and not available on xbox anymore, there is no reference to xbmc anymore. That is why xbmc will get a new name - Kodi!

Hello, while I'm not at all an HTPC noob, I am when comes to AVRs. I've not had the money most of my life that would allow me to get these and speakers on top of buying HTPC stuff.

Okay, well if we're going to proceed, you're going to need to help me understand a bit more about the 2 specific points I raised. Specifically... 1. Why do you say that you need one tuner per channel? Even if I assume you have some legitimate reason for that, the practicalities become important. In other words, I have no idea how...

Hi guys. I am wondering how to can get the most resolution out of a 3D BluRay backup through a passive-3D TV. My passive 3DTV outputs the left and right eye frames at the same time (unlike active which switches each eye). To achieve this with only 1920x1080 pixels to work with, the TV polarises the first row of pixels for one eye...
