Hi, I'm looking for opinions for using Roku HD1000 as mythtv frontend. I think since last month, some developers have build mythtv frontend for the HD1000.
I want to know if people have tried HD1000 and happy/unhappy with it. I think for under $300 its a very good solution for someone looking for cheap & quiet solution. It has onboard mpeg-2 decoder. Sure, it wont play mpeg4(divx) etc right now. But if someone writes a mpeg4 to mpeg2 transcoder for the backend (its also needed for haupagge media mvp), then HD1000 is an all around solution. The cromwell motherboard is about $300, then adding the slim case, power supply, memory, *time* etc , the final cost is about $600. Everything else is too noisy to put in same cabinet and still costs over $500 (p4-3ghz box with a good motherboard , slim case, quiet power supply etc etc still costs $600). Thanks Mudit _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
