Hi, I'd like to make frontend for HDTV but want to keep in a separate room. That way I dont have to care about how it looks, how quiet is it , etc etc. I can house it in a big case with loud fans. I dont have to spend money in a nice looking case and quiet power supply etc. The frontend will be controlled via an RF remote which is supported by linux/lirc. Any suggestions for the RF remote ? The frontend will be in garage or somewhere, about 50-100 ft away.
How do I route the audio/video cables ? Connection options for Video: 1. Run Long VGA cables (50-100 ft) and then use VGA to Component transcoder. 2. Run Long Component Cables (video card which has component connector, such as 6200 or 6600) Connection for Audio ? How long digital coax cable can I run ? How about analog audio cables ? Thanks Mudit p.s.: still torn between a small/sleek frontend (such as Roku HD1000 for $300 , cromwell for $600) or a huge powerhouse for $400 which I can use for other things besides watching HDTV. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
