hey tipster, ran across this thread some time back, decided to start putting a htpc together. I currently have a 4850 and 8 gb of ddr 2, a good power supply. I'm wanting to record 2 shows at the same time. While being able to browse the internet. Is this possible? Can you give me suggestions on an OS and software I'd need for blue ray ripping to my hard drives for easy playback.

Software: Sagetv for recording and viewing on the HTPC or to your HDTV or TV.
Server OS ED 2003 RD works best for HTPC
Client OS XP SP3 comes in a close second for HTPC
Get a dual Hauppauge HVR-1800 PCI-E do you have extra PCI-E slot?
Really don't want to record and surf the internet, well you could do it with the setup you have. But issues with audio/video sync might show up in the recording or not.

I idea world is to have a system built for each task. So that's what I did. Built systems for my needs. HTPC I use records 3 different shows at the same time. Did try 4 at the same time but some times the 4th had audio/sync problems. Now with Dual cards you can use two on PCI-E bus instead of PCI bus.

As of April 1st 2009, due the bad news from the guys over at FileFront who has been hosting all my files for MediaMVP have announced they'll be closing shop on March 30th 2009. So now I'll be hosting my files only Tipster Network Tweaks 2009, Build 600 and 800 and Media Changer 2009 Web Tool for MediaMVP will be hosted by me.

All other tools current like Tipstir Network Tools 2009 will be hosted. So if you want to now is the best time to download prior builds and themes. Because when they're gone that's it. I am only focusing on Build 600, 800 and MediaChanger 2009. Media Changer software will replace all builds soon as it will be the main theme customize so multi-mediamvp themes can be created through it.

Thanks for your continuous support..

This looks cool, can't wait to try it.

Hi Tipster,

I've been looking into how to build a digital, HD, HTPC. I've got some questions and misunderstandings I hope you can clear up.

Objective:
Build a HTPC that can
1) Record Video
2) Playback Video, Online Streaming, and Images
3) Supports full HD Audio

Questions:
- With HDMI 1.3 supporting both audio & video, is there a way to skip a PC sound card and use a dedicated audio receiver? Ie. Under the assumption the digital cable box has HDMI output, SPLIT the HDMI into two cables, one running to the audio receiever and one into the computer.
- Say your running a motherboard with the 790GX chipset motherboard that decodes HD content and has built in graphics; How do you output what you want to play to a HDTV? I see motherboards and cards with one HDMI port. If this is the input which there must be, wheres the output???

A review for the Asus Xonar sound card went like this:
" I had to run HDMI into my videocard, then a DVI (from geforce 260) to the audio card's HDMI input, then the audio card's HDMI output to the Yamaha receiver, then HDMI from the Yamaha receiver to the television. "

Is this standard? Is this how its done? Would DVI output from the graphics card carry the audio to the sound card?

Im hoping you can answer some of these questions and provide me a direction on how to setup a HD HTPC.
Heres the hardware Im looking at.
Motherboard, BIOSTAR TFORCE AM2+ 790GX HDMI ready
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813138128
Sound Card, ASUS Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe 7.1
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16829132008

Do you think a Radeon 3300 will play 1080 res. high def. content without a hitch? The 3300 is a 200MHz faster 3200.

Thank you.

Your building HD HTPC.. So you can get HD off your Coax then? If not then you would need to do it off STB. You'll need HD Tuners Cards PCI-E are faster. There is dual HD tuner versions. Check out Hauppauge web site for those. These tuners should last you 4 years before failing. The case need to be cooled 24/7. Once tuner cards start recording they generate a lot of heat. HDD TB for HDTV Recording another TB for Archiving. Dual Core or Dual Quad Core min 4GB of RAM.

This PC won't be use for playing games or surfing the web. Just recording and playback.I use SageTV for Recording and SageTV Web Server to manage recordings. Can be done remotely also.

I agree with tipstir.

Hey tipstir,

What can you tell us about Nibiru.

This forum doesn't support that feature. Null!

Introducing Black Sev7en Media Center Edition Theme for Media MVP.

I was inspired to create this theme after the current release of Windows 7.
The selector method would be the very first item on top of the list in this example above Movie Library would be selected.

Under Picture Library you can go to either direction shown with the selection choice you have.

This has all the latest patch fixes and now the Web browser can be use
to view real HTML pages instead of using JPEG image screen dumps. To
exit out of the Web Browser you need to press 2x Back/Exit.

Note: Media MVP Customizer Build 215 or higher will support this newer theme only.
