    FLAC is better?

    Not a troll post despite the title. I have a pair of polk LSi9's running biamped off a pioneer elite receiver. The sound is coming from my HTPC via optical cable. And after hearing people rave on how FLAC is "night and day" better than 128kbps mp3, I decided I better try it out. So I figured...

    I'm using windows XP professional 32bit with XBMC. The PC is an AMD x2 5200, 2 gigs of ram, and an 8800gt. The issue that I'm having is that when XBMC is running I get occasional tearing or frame drops (I'm not sure the term) in the video. What appears to happen is almost like the video gets...

    I have an AMD X2 5000+, 2gigs ram, evga 8800gt 512. Anytime I run a 1080p mkv, my cpu usage spikes to 90/100 percent. On my other computer e6600, 4gigs ram, 8800gts 640 I'm running 60-80 percent. This seems way too high for these setups. I'm using MediaPlayerClassic and XBMC and getting...

    Many drives in a HTPC case

    Looking for a Home Theater style case that I can pack 13 hard drives into. Modding is perfectly fine so don't think I'm expecting 13 drive bays. Reason for this is that I want my server drives to be mounted in a case that looks like my other two media center computers so I can have it all...

    Equipment when you have a projector screen?

    Those of you with projectors, what do you do with your equipment? I'm not really sure how I want to do mine because I like the clean look of just having the screen and the speakers up front, but then I also like the look of having the equipment up there with it. Anyone have any pictures they...
