Hi !
After Days of searching, i found Mediaportal, and my first view, perfect! THE solution i was searching for.
I'm still in phase of planing. So i hope i can get some inputs. I will report the success (or fail) of my project, as active forum user it should be no problem.
Here the concept and the questions:
Description:
********************
(*) Windows-Home-Server, sharing with 2 friends (private and public area) (same music and film taste ), Raid5, 4TB, 20MBit Cable (assured)
(*) Power PC, still in planing. energy consumption and noise does not matter.
i dont want 1 gaming pc and 1 HTPC. 1 should fit all.
(Quad-Core, 4GBRAM, 3 10k SATA HDs Raid 0, graphics-card ?, TV-card ? )
(*) 55" Samsung LED TV, DLNA (but i won't need DLNA with MEdiaportal. )
(*) 24" TFT Full HD in the citchen, as "mirror" of the TV
(*) TV-signal via cable. no satellite
************************************
pc stands in an extra-room. in the living room there is TV, amplifier, USB-HUB for wireless keyboard.
Windows Home-server in another house, connection via OpenVPN and business-cable-connection.
pc should run 7/24
************************************
And here the questions!
1) Anyone experience with mapped network-drives via VPN? performance? (20MBit Up/Down)
2) TV-card -> i have no idea what's on the market, what fits and so on. suggestions?
3) Will my System work? lol
I would be glad about every Input, positive AND negative!
THX!
Klaus
