.. LG GSA-H10N, 3x250 Seagate HDD in LVM (via the included lvm sh script), no graphics card, using 350's tvout, sound directly from 350, silver remote worked out of the box.. combined backend-front end.. dyndns so I can schedule from work:) Went R5c rather than 'd' bcs of problems noted with 'd' and the 350's tv-out... Noise pretty good actually. Can hardly hear it from +2 metres. Installed a couple of weeks ago, every aspect worked out of the box! but of course I couldn't leave well enuf alone, so I've tried various stupid things and ended up using the wiki and forums search a lot to fix mysql problems - but all due to mistakes on my part, nothing to do with the system/install, which was flawless. Totally awesome, my heartfelt thanks Cecil, tlc, et al! And my family's too! Have started to use xbmcmythtv for front end, and I think the picture quality may be even better than the 350's. Heartily recommend either the 350 or xbmcmythtv if, like me, you live in an SD world, particularily if you're a little short on CPU power... will hopefully be getting a Viewsat FTA receiver soon to add-on, will post lircd if/once it's working... Aside: been trying for years to convince family and friends to just try Linux on the desktop or as a file server with no luck... one look at the Mythweb and they're beating down the door ... |

It would be helpful if you could fill out the template from the sticky posting: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10955 It makes these recommendations far more useful to other folks looking to follow your "recipe for success". Thanks. |
