    First HTPC

    I've not read every repky you have gotten but wanted to say that i was in a similar situation a few years ago and eventually I decided to build 2 machines. 1 a very small minimal HTPC and 2 a server. This way you can have a small silent system which you can turn off and on as you wish, and a...

    help building htpc

    the tv tuner card you get depends on how you get your tv - through a standard antenna? cable? satellite? Also if you plan on recording tv on this machine i would recommend getting a 1tb driver or 500gb minimum because it will fill up very quickly, especially if you plan on recording hdtv

    New HTPC build, problems with bluray playback

    I hadn't previously looked at CCC at all. I selected a preset "movies" and it appears to have helped. I've also turned off all the post processing options - fingers crossed I think it's fixed the problem :) Regarding TMT3 I was just checking and I could upgrade to version 5 or I could get...

    New HTPC build, problems with bluray playback

    Hi The player is TMT 3 I've not tried to make a MKV file because I've never had much luck with MKV files and media center. I do have some 1080 MKV files on my server, I'll try running a few to see if I get problems. I don't really have any other software to play bluray rips, but as I said...
