Hmmm Media Portal looks rather nice, I`m going to check that out.
Spare PC I can muster for the weekend:
SilverPower 400W SP-400P1B (passive)
ASRock K7VT4A Pro
AMD Athlon 2600+ (Can run as a 2800+ with no effort)
1G (only has 2 slots iirc, could stretch 1.5G, but would rather 1G)
Gigabyte 6600 GT *vivo *128m (silentpipe)
Creative Soundblaster 5.1 Live! (with drive & remote - very probably not usable for MP menu`ing)
Drive space of any size, and multiple sizes
Sony DW-Q30a DVD/RW
.. and a choice of 3 WinTV cards, all analogue, based on the 878:
1)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, and IR (44354 Rev C221) PAL - B/G - I (regular rf aerial sockets)
2)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, and IR (44354 Rev C242) PAL - B/G - I (composite looking rf aerial sockets)
3)FM/TV Tuner, Line in & out (stereo), DTV/S-Vid input, AV composite out (61334 Rev B2) PAL - BG/I (regular rf aerial sockets)
.. or all 3 ?
Wanna see how it handles my music collection, DVDs, DVDs I`ve converted, pics/photos, recording TV for a laugh (all the cards use SoftPVR afaik, not sure of 61334 model, has a larger chip stapled to the rear of it) recording from my Sky+ via DTV/S-Vid and whatever.
Fair test for it ?
EDIT: Also meant to mention I have these cards too:
WINNOV Videum AV PCI
Pinnacle Studio Deluxe (Callisto)
Pinnacle DC30plus
