Hey guys...

I finnally can start the build of my new MediaPortal system, i want to use a Shuttle system to build from and play the video on a 42" inch full HD LCD screen.

With the casing, audio and memory etc i will find my way, the Graphicscard and TV card get a litle harder i also don't have any experience with HD and MP's TV server yet.

I got a few questions....

1) I've got a digital comcast reciever, but only see anolog outputs on it, so how do i connect it to the MP system?

2) I can imagen the comcast reciever streams the tv signal trough MP, this makes MP basiclly a slave of the comcast reciever without bieng able to record or show the guide, can somebody explain what i'm missing here ?

3) I'f I gave you money to buy me a TV card and a graphics card, what would you bring ? ( and be good, no hookers drugs or booze )

ThX in advance..........

Greetz Jan
