[QUOTE="adri76, post: 777594, member: 115013"] Hi I'm busy planning a HTPC build and need some advice from the SA members on the forum. I currently have a Tivo series 1 and was very happy with it up until a few weeks ago when it broke down. Fixing it would not be a major issue, but I think it's rather outdated and I should be able to build a HTPC that can do what Tivo can and much more. I've decided on most of the hardware already, but still need some advice regarding the remote and IR Blaster for changing channels on my DSTV decoder. Are there any SA members here that can suggest a remote / ir blaster combo that is locally available? Any feedback regarding my choice of hardware would also be appreciated. (tried to keep cost as low as possible) H/W setup: Tuner: Compro videomate e600f Graphics: Asus Nvidia EN210 HDD: WD Caviar 500gb CPU: Intel Dual Core E5700 3ghz M/Board: Asus P5G41T-M LX Mem: Corsair 2gb ddr3-1333mhz Case: Isonic Elegance 101 [/QUOTE]
