Crazy_Nate Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Nate.... this place might have the switches you are looking for or a cool plate? http://www.mnpctech.com/Bulgin-Anti-Vandal-Switch-Plate.html Yeah, I looked there. Sorry, no dice Bill has 22mm switches. I'll just wait...if the current switches break, it'll just force me to get working on it. I don't want to rush this. The lot rate for black anodizing is usually about $100... I'm still debating on how far I'd like to take it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bp9801 Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Thats a pretty sweet looking board. Should look very nice in your all black case, can't wait to see it all installed. Ah well sdy, at least you'll have a six core HTPC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Bumpificate. It'll be awesome to get an ACTUAL rig up and running Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 I wonder how big the flange is on the 22mm hole switches... it's gotta be >25mm surely... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Well, my WDTV is a great alternative to an HTPC, but it's got a few lip sync issues. I know the files are fine, as the laptop plays them flawlessly and WD are now not supporting (seemingly) 1st Gen WDTV players ... ... so I thought about an HTPC some more (thanks Scott) ... and then I thought about the nettops using the Nvidia ION chipsets. Anyone clued up on these? I really want something that can play back mkv files (up to 25GB each). I don't mind having external drives (inevitable), but I just don't know which are the best units at the moment. The Acer Revo R3610 looks decent ... /hijack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both stream full Bluray remuxes (m2ts 50GB files) and all my mkv's off my file server without so much as a hiccup. I have over 800 HD files and both NMT's play everything flawlessly. With the combination of YAMJ this is an unbeatable combo. This is what my front end looks like. There are alternatives like XBMC and Boxee that run on a PC or ION platform but IMO the Popcorn Hours are the most complete package to date. Also they have the ability to play back HD audio flawlessly which is a must for me. PM me and/or start a new thread if you have questions as I don't want to hijack Nate's lovely thread. Also Crazy_Nate I would suggest trying out Boxee when you get your box up and running.....its cross platform and can run on top of Linux, Mac, or Windows. http://www.boxee.tv/ Edited May 5, 2010 by krazypoloc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
