Hi !
I'm planning to build my first HTPC and I'd like your help to choose beetween some motherboards. The models are:
Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H/GeForce 7100/nForce 630i
Pros:
+ HDMI
+ Optical S/PDIF Out
+ SVIDEO/COMPONENT OUTPUT (HDTV Bracket)
Cons:
--GEFORCE 7050PV->HW ACCELERATION
-NVIDIA PureVideo
ABIT AN-M2HD (LE) AM2+/AM2 GeForce7050PV/ nForce630a HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard + Pros:
PROS:
GEFORCE 7050PV->HW ACCELERATION
+NVIDIA PureVideo
+1 x HDMI
+1x Optical S/PDIF Out
Cons:
--NO SVIDEO
-COMPONENT OUTPUT
Biostar TF7050-M2
Pros
+GEFORCE 7050PV->
HW ACCELERATION
+NVIDIA PureVideo
+ HDMI
+ SVIDEO
Cons:
- Optical S/PDIF Out
I'll be using this HTPC to play dvd, music, divx/xvid files to a 52" FULL HD TV. I plan to use the HDMI to TV, and digital audio to my receiver (old one without HDMI input/output). I still need SVIDEO to send video signal to my old receiver (I has a projector connected to the receiver)
About playing Blue ray, HD DVD, or H264, it's not a mandatory requirement, but it would be great.
I selected some motherboards with 7050PV because it has HW acceleration, but I don't know if it works with with h264 acceleration. talking about HW acceleration, I need portugues subtitles. Does subtitle work with HW Acceleration ?
Please, comments....
