Users / re-Routeing audio independant of video

« on: May 10, 2008, 11:37:02 am »

Hello,

I'm hoping to do this:

I have a tv in the bed room with a surround sound system connected to the md, I want to be able to switch the audio from the surround to a set of wireless headphones while keeping the video on the video. I have no free audio jacks on the md but have a spare pci slot to add an audio card if that is what is needed.

Thank you for any help to get this set up

Users / Can I set up my network like this?

« on: April 14, 2008, 04:26:22 am »

I want to keep as close to this network setup as I can. Currently im set up like this:



ADSL MODEM => wifi router handeling dhcp port forwading etc => gigabit switch

*other than guest laptops the rest of this is all wired into the switch*

User laptops, desktops. Media server handling torrents, downloads, podcasts etc. Storage server with backups of laptops/desktops *anything needing raid 5*



At the moment I have the network setup as I like it. I would want my lmce boxes to be able to access the media on all my current network boxes... how should I go about this, what pieces of my equip should be swapped out?

I also use 192.168.0.XXX for internal ip's, can i keep this?

Thank you in advance
