    ubnt UAP-AC-PRO / UAP-AC-Lite

    I installed an AC LR a couple days ago. Previous router was a Linksys AC1900. Coverage has be phenomenal. I have a 1400q/ft stick built home. The 5Ghz signal completely covers the entire home, this was surprising. Had been planning on needing to for complete 5Ghz coverage. Obviously 2.4...

    This is the cheapest, best HTPC option today

    It passes DTS, that's what I use. I have the Asus version and absolute love it. Install of openelec was seamless. I use a Synology NAS which combined with all the available add ons make a great pay TV replacement. I couldn't be happier with the set-up. Works perfectly, don't make a peep...

    Watching TV on XBMC

    Get mash to start with. It has about everything all combined into one interface. Also get p2p as it installs acestream along with it that will allow you to access much higher quality streams. Mash really rocks though. icefilms, 1click among others are good. Youtube fusion and supereppo to...

    What device(s) controls your media devices?

    I haven't posted here in years but I love this product so much I had to come out. I had used a Harmony One for a couple years until the dog destroyed and picked up a Harmony Smart Control. I got the version that comes with the basic remote. The thing is awesome. It eliminates the need to...

    My netbook research and decision

    The mini 10 1024*576, which is the same as the HP 2140. I have came to pretty similiar solution with the HP mini 1000 being the best thing out there for the money. For business use the 2140 may be worth the extra for the durability of the aluminum construction. I myself am waiting for the...

    Anyone else ready for the new GPU's?(netbooks)

    None, but I don't want to encode my media twice. I want to be able to grab what I want off my server and head out the door. Not have to plan a day in advance so I can re-encode something, not to mention the huge waste in power usage.

    Anyone else ready for the new GPU's?(netbooks)

    I am really itching for a netbook. I want a portable media powerhouse. Mainly for watching HD video and DVD rips. Right now Atom is barely competent at the task. The GN40's look good if they would ever get them out. What I am most looking forward to seeing is the Via Nano/Nvidia Ion combo...

    Antec MX-1 USB/e-SATA questions

    Two different items for different purposes. If you want a simle back-up then the MX-1 would be a fine choice. If you are wanting more complex storage with fault tolerance then take a look at RAID storage. But if you decide you want RAID I would go ahead and step to you own server or at least...

    or $40 less. Give it a couple weeks and they will drop into the $230-$250 range. Like everything this else new to market it will have a price premium for a while.

    New Media Server Help

    I would actually recommend against WHS for this application. I have WHS myself and it serves my needs quite well, no complaints. But one of the downsides to WHS is once you hit around eight drives performance goes down the toilet. Even using the new 2TB drives you are going to soar right past...
