    Definitely going to have to build a seperate htpc box. If I don't throttle down the CPU fan, I can hear it outside.

    If you're thinking about getting a Vantec Tornado, consider yourself warned, it's probably the best fan you can buy, but loud isn't even the word...

    Production HTPC in living room:

    MSI PT8 Neo - cheap and cheerful with S/PDIF output on back panel
    Celeron-D 2.4GHz
    Zalman CPU cooler and power supply
    Zalman Fanmates to run CPU and case fans at slow speed
    512MB Kingston Value RAM
    Radeon 9200SE 128MB
    2x200MB Seagate Barracuda SATA drives in RAID-0
    Pioneer DVD-RW drive
    Belkin 802.11g wireless LAN adapter (Broadcom)
    DVICO FusionHDTV-Plus DVB-T card - not supported yet but has BDA drivers
    Accent HTPC case - gold anodised front with built in IMON remote and VFD
    MS wireless keyboard and mouse at the moment - like to do without altogether if possible
    XP Pro/SP1

    All driving:

    Sony KV-HR32 HDTV - readable desktop at 1280x720p via RGBHV inputs
    Marantz SR5200 receiver
    Krix speakers - Lyrix Gold fronts, Centrix centre, Equinox rears, Seismix3-MkII sub

    Development PC in study:

    Intel D865GBF - what I'd use in the above if I did things over
    P4 3.2GHz 800FSB (Prescott)
    Zalman CPU cooler and power supply
    1GB Kingston Value RAM
    Radeon 9200SE 128MB
    2x80MB Seagate Barracuda SATA drives in RAID-0
    Pioneer DVD-RW drive
    Netcomm 802.11g wireless LAN adapter (Prism)
    DVICO FusionHDTV-lite DVB-T card
    Shitty case hidden under desk - considering a remote and VFD for testing
    IBM/Sony 21" Trinitron monitor
    XP Pro/SP2 + Visual Studio.NET

    Other PC's:
    Asus Pundit-R used for email, accounting and boring admin type stuff. It runs a TI chipset 802.11g card. I deliberately mix things up to test compatibility.
    PIII Celeron 700 running Smoothwall Express for firewall/router
    XBox in the kids room with no connectivity as yet
    Enough old motherboards of PIII vintage and bits to make a few more machines to test ideas.

    Computer room machines are linked by a 100Mbps switch + access point that talks over 802.11g to an access point on the firewall box. I can switch over to wireless only if I want to test streaming video and stuff.

    All this connected to the 'net by a.... 56K modem! :cry:

    I've just moved house and didn't check if ADSL was available - duh. So, if you're feeling jealous about all the kit I have to play with you can make fun of me now. :lol:

    You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.

    MediaPortal 2 has much less configuration options compared to MediaPortal 1 and Kodi and as for any other modern HTPC software it can be configured in the client without usage of external tools. The surface of PlayerFab is unknown to me, but "google search" tells me it's made not for our target group. Because of that and missing...
