Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I just purchased the HDHomeRun Prime and have been using for about five weeks now. Works great and has been on sale for about $125 at NewEgg last week. I posted a couple questions to this forum on a good HTPC set up and got some good feedback. Do a search for my profile name to find it. Here is...
I wanted to post a follow up on how things have gone with my new HTPC set up.
First, the HDHomeRun Prime is great. I would definitely recommend it. Set up with Time Warner Cable (TWC) was easy. I called tech support and they transferred me to the cable card support team. They authorized the...
Rudy,
TV is a Sony 46" LCD, nothing super fancy.
I am in the process this week of re-imaging the PC. I had imaged it with Clonezilla when I first got the PC, so it is a easy process. Clonezilla LInk
I assume the Google Play store is just for Android devices, that won't help us since we have...
Thanks valve1138! Primarily it would be the whole house DVR, then using it for my iTunes support of my iPhone and iPad. I will also be using it for music streaming to my receiver either played by iTunes, WMC, Pandora or Spotify.
I have not thought ahead enough on the regular movie file...
I am in the very beginning of setting up my first HTPC. I've posted a couple other questions to this forum and have gotten some great feedback and suggestions on hardware. I've placed orders for a number of the recommendations.
I have an existing family PC that is about two years old. It is a...
When I posted my question, I was not home, since then I've determined my existing card (the Dell 580s was purchased back in June 2010):
AMD ATI Radeon 5450 graphics card

Thank you for the replies they were very helpful.
I've determined that my existing graphics card is a AMD ATI Radeon 5450, which has the HDMI port that will deliver audio to my TV. It does support HDPC, so I think I am in good shape to change it to a HTPC...
Thank you both for your insight. Is it possible then to run a separate cable from my HTPC for audio to my reciever or does the HDMI need to be the single cable that delivers the audio signal? :confused:
Will audio be provided on both cables simultaneously?
The reason I ask is to avoid to...
I am looking to make the move to a HTPC solution for my familys TV needs. We are a current Time Warner Cable (TWC) digital subscriber and have one DVR in the house with two other TVs with standard cable connection. I have a three year old Dell Inspiron 480s desktop (Win7, Intel 5i 2.3 Ghz quad...
