Thanks for the props. I assume wierdbeard65's comments were directed at me
Rule #1 - Be Patient - Rule #2 - Don't ask when, if you don't contribute - Rule #3 - You have coding skills - LinuxMCE's small brother is available: http://www.agocontrol.com

I saw that there were some complete systems except for the AMD processor and RAM recommended on the Wiki. Those were manufactured by MSI and available at NewEgg. However, they have been discontinued.
Do you recommend a system like that, or building one from the bottom up?
For a solution to be universal to lmce, I think the only way would be what you are referring to as the software compressor stage (within the mixer in my mind).The software compressor stage won't help when the sound card is the audio source only part of the time. That is, when a receiver is used to switch between, for example, radio, blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and the media director sound card.
The best way I can think of would be to have the sound mixer crank up the volume if below a low thresh hold, and lower it below a high one. This would increase quiet talking without making loud explosions too loud (like a "Night Mode" in a receiver), as well as equal out the volume across all videos. Unfortunately I don't know of anything that does this.skeptic,
my rather underpowered core with a A64 3200+ commflags 720p dtv shows at about 22 fps for reference.Great, that's exactly the ballpark figure I was looking for.
Meaning a permanent fix, i.e. maybe adding these settings to the webmin, which would make it receiver agnostic.
Is there a way to fix this permanently?
Thanks for posting your sample set up.
I want to build a LinuxMCE hybrid core machine. The problem is that many of the components you used are no longer available. That is also the case with what I find on the Wiki.
How do I know which components to use? Also, should I use 710, or wait until 810 is out?
I'd prefer to have the foundation set up as legal entity.
