    Merchandise yes ... CafePress HELL no

    I think merchandise is a very good idea. But I have seen the cafePress stuff and in my opinion it is pretty bad.

    hi,
    i am currently working on some mediaportal merchandise.
    i already got a couple of slogans for all kinds of merchandise.
    but i want to ask you to give me more slogans, so we can sort the best ones out and maybe have then on the merchandise.

    :idea: so go ahead and do a little brainstorming :idea:

    What do we have so far to help get the creative juices flowing?

    somebody had "Media Portal - on a home theater near you!" in his signature. Don't remember who that was - but I like that slogan!

    Products: I would like to have a nice GEL CAP sticker for my MP box.

    thanks+regards

    well, I checked an online shop. When buying 1000 gelcap stickers they cost around 50 Cents each.

    Selling them on 2 or 3 Euros would bring enough money to sponsor TV cards and other hardware for the devs. (whereas I would have no problem to pay 5 Euros, as it is meant as a donation!)

    In my opinion the stickers simply would carry the MP logo (graphic and text) as above to the left on this website.

    Problems:
    - can 1000 stickers be sold?
    - who would fund the initial investment?

    For everyboy who doesn't know what a gelpcap sticker is: http://www.promex.de/pins_galerie04.html

    thanks+regards

    This sounds like a really cool idea! The gel stickers or "domed" stickers would be wicked for sticking on your MP machine! I've sent in a request for a quote from a company in the US as well. 50 cent/sticker sounds a bit steep to me. I'll pass along the information once they respond!

    The idea sounds great and I would certainly buy some things there...

    If you need a designer for tshirt-logo or sticker or something like that - I'd help out...

    I am still here, thanks for the input, so I have now settled on mp1, I am not afraid of a lot of tweaking. Good news on tuners is I can run side by side with my WMC setup, as my tuners are using DVBlink to combine channels for WMC, so WMC is using 8 virtual tuners from DVBlink while MP is using the tuners directly. Of course they are...

    Thank you for the reply. It looks like a codec mess. the LAV audio decoder / playback has a -350 delay on the audio on one set of channels and is +150 on the others lol. Thats so strange! I didn't have time to mess with it much yesterday but I was able to see where the problems are more. Updated drivers for AMD Radeon V5800 but...
