I've been toying with the idea of building a MythTV box of my own for some time now, and have finally decided to take the plunge. But I have a couple of questions I'd like to ask first

1. I want this project to look nice on the outside, and so was thinking of a Shuttle or a Qbic barebones system as my base. However, these only have 1 PCI slot, which would ruin my plans of putting a second tv card in there eventually. So what do you all use in the way of cases?

2. Are there any recommended TV cards that support Freeview (UK Free-to-air digital channels), as I'd like this feature in my box. If so, will the EPG quite happily grab the listings for Freeview channels?

Thanks in advance for you help!

1) Many people including myself use the Coolermaster 620 It takes a microatx motherboard and looks right at home in an entertainment rack. It is almost the exact same size as my Reciever and has the same gold feet.

2) Sorry have no Idea on this one.

Thanks for that, it's a nice looking case. I take it it takes full size PCI cards?

yup and I haven't had any problems with them being tight like I have heard about the asus pundit cases.

Lovely, thank you.
