[Please don't top-post. See the list Guidelines] I've been toying with getting a "media player", e.g. the Western Digital WD Live, which allows you to store all your videos on an external USB drive (which you supply separately) and converts them on the fly to a HD TV signal. It's only $100-150 on Amazon and the Live model also has Wifi. I'm sure MythTV on a spare box can do all this as well, there's something to be said for special-purpose boxes in this sort of situation. I'm open to persuasion however. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
