[QUOTE="plotto, post: 599077, member: 57628"] Hi, I have finished my media center for the house and thought I would share. Lounge server, Kitchen Server and Rumpus HW AMD Athlon 64X2 5000+ 2.6ghz 2 Gb Ram 80gb Hdd Nvidia Geforce 8400GS DVDR Hauppauge Nova DT Dual DVB Logitech Harmony 525 MCE Keyboard Windows 7 MP Latest Streamed MP Latest Plus 2 x 500gb External HDD 2 x 1tb External HDD 2 x 2tb External HDD Sherwood RD-7502 Wii IR Extender The Computers are all based in the Garage, about 5-10 Meters from the Screens in the lounge, kitchen etc. The system is running on HD and is delivered to the Screens (42" plasma Lounge, 24"LCD everywhere else) via HDMI to Cat5 Converters (Can extend up tp 100ft) Audio in the lounge is 5.1 stand up speakers via the Sherwood Audio AMP . Speakers in the rumpus and Kitchen are in the ceiling. All the monitors are Mounted on wall mounts that can extend off the wall and swivel and tilt, even the 42" There are also 2 MSI Netbooks running MP as well so that my daughters can watch tv, listen to music from anywhere in the house. And for the BBQ area when I entertain, I use my Ipaq pocket PC to Control the music and serve it up thru some outdoor speakers around the BBQ area. All-in-all this was done on the cheap, and it has been a long struggle but have finally got there, I hope.
