Hi Ohad,<br>
<br>
If you are looking for a media center case with a infra-red receive,
remote control or even a LED display on it.<br>
I can find it in Sim Lim Sq, I CYBERMIND carry a few design by
SILVERSTONE.<br>
<br>

<div>I use a PVR-250 which is a USB MPEG2 encoder, I bought it 3

Hi Ohad,<br>
<br>
I am thinking of building a Media Center by installing XBMC or some such<br>
software on a laptop. Laptops nowadays have 300GB+ disks, HDMI, WLAN,
DVDROM<br>
or BDROM drives etc.<br>
<br>
You could extend the diskspace by either networking (samba? ) or
additional<br>
USB drives.<br>
<br>
A combined wireless KB+Mouse enables your TV to function as a youtube
device<br>
too<br>
<br>
A laptop can be hidden easily in a TV cabinet.<br>
<br>
There are two problems I need to solve: Linux compatible USB-TV
adapter, LIRC<br>
integration<br>
<br>
Any suggestions for Linux compatible USB-TV adapters? Any
recommendations will<br>
be just nice for the IT show ;-)<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
