Title: Still Undecided on HTPC or other device. Post by: rip|Jackal on June 14, 2009, 02:01:16 PM Popcorn hour - downside is .iso support is buggy if there at all; no dvd rom if needed; have to wait for company to fix bugs.
PS3 - I don't want to stream movies from another device, device must be able to store all my media on the device itself. HTPC - Unsure of playing media through HDMI and proper video resolution or configs that need to be setup. WDHT - downside is no dvd rom and need external hdd. As you can probably guess, I'm still leaning toward a HTPC. Title: Re: Still Undecided on HTPC or other device.

The transcoding done by tversity on the stream puts it over the top.
I'd vote htpc based on that condition. |
