Cylon, I'm interested if you still have this..........

I have a fairly large house and looking for a good core to handle up to 10 MD's + several orbiters.

Have you tested LinuxMCE 0810 on this server?

Thanks for the update Thom,

Web orbiter works flawlessly in the mean time.

Hey Murcel, did you get anywhere with these windows orbiters?

Just checking, i was trying to set it up on my laptop and saw the download was 0 bytes and a search led me to this thread.

If not, I'll just wait untill the final,

thanks,

Richard

Let's get back to the store front, when is it going to be available, can you at least put a current status report on a simple index.html on your domain, not sure what it's showing now?

I'm interested in what you will have to offer. Also where can I find info on the tablet you are selling?

I would be interested to see different kind of compatible remotes and or gyro's and tablets and/or fully capable touch screen remotes.

CollinJones, thank you for the answer, that cuts down on my cost a lot, I was affraid the core would not be able to keep up with 10 MD's (when I'm done).

I already have NAS in the house with all media and files on it that we use with the 6 computers in the house, I can bump it up to 2,5Tb so should be enough to start with.

I looked at the Revo, but although it looks nice, I want to mount the MD on the back of the monitors/TV's or on the wall, even for current old TV's in the house I want to make it future proof and the M350 enclosure looks just as nice as the Revo.
Cost is also a factor, I have build computers all my life, and building the ATOM ION with the M350 and 1Gb of RAM for the MD's cost about 225 to 250 depending on N230 or N330, the revo MRSP is 299, for the eventual 10 MD's that's $500-$750 saving for me.......

I do have one small (pun intended) question, with some research and programming would it be possbile to have these boogers work on this system to act as an orbiter? http://www.mini-box.com/Samsung-S3C2440A-400MHz

I know you can say, everything can be made to work, but is it viable? These only cost about $110 and look like an awesome orbiter to use, I would mount these in wall where my current intercom is now together with a speaker and microphone for music distribution and possible intercom or voice activation features. Looks like a nice project for the coming year for me.

Thanks again,

Richard

Hi all, very interested in this LinuxMCE, i'm ready to try it and I'm picking the hardware as we speak, but... haha

I'm going to build a core (or hybrid) and possibly 5 or more MD's (big house). Now I know only 2 of these MD's are going to be important to do HD on.
I would like to use Netboot but can put a small hd in the MD's if necessary.

For the Core/Hybrid I'm probably going for a cheap quad core intel setup and a decent Gpu so I can use a monitor if I want to.

We have a current home intercom, and I would like to incorporate this somehow in the system, still have to do research on this as also for the security system part, we have an old system installed, but do not use it. The way I see it, we at least have wires running, which helps.

My first question is: is a cheaper quad core or a better dual core going to be able to run 5+ (up to 10) MD's?


After building my core and 1 or 2 MD's that work I will upgrade swiftly, for the MD's i'm going for the ATOM ION boards with the M350 enclosure.

I want to give the developers of this system a big CONGRATULATIONS and THANKS for this great system, Hopefully I will be able to contribute after using the system for a while and integrating my intercom and home security.

Richard
