Hey dudies.

I've opened up editing on the Wiki again, you will just have to answer some random Captcha questions when trying to make an edit or creating an account, etc.

Anyone managed to get synchronized streaming to multiple XBMC boxes working properly? I have quite a large property and a few disparate boxes setup that I'd like to sync when I have parties. I'm currently using iTunes to stream but there is no way to synchronise them properly so it inevitably sounds like a modern DJ without the auto-BPM function...
 
Hi

I recently purchased a N40L for use as an HTPC. This will be connected to my Samsung led.
Have an existing HTPC (using Antec NSK 2480B) as well which is connected to another lcd.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Got myself a Sapphire Radeon HD6450 2GB card. Apparently this comes with a heatsink, which it seems (from googling) either fits perfectly or doesn't at all. Anyone have same card and see that it fits fine?

I have one of these in my N40L and it fits fine, no issues.

3. System comes with 2GB ram - should I add more?

Currently running Windows 7 64 on mine and found it a bit sluggish with the standard 2GB - swopped out the ram and added 2x Kingston 4GB Hyper Blu DDR3 modules (KHX1600C9D3B1/4G) from Esquire.
Memory is fairly cheap these days (think these were R189 each ex vat) and although it may be overkill for an HTPC, it works perfectly for the other things I do on it.
 
Im confused... Is it necesary to use sickbeard on OPENELEC, and if so how do I install it or use it???

Necessary for?

Install it from the add-on menu. Use it with a browser from another pc on the same network.

Cleaned up all the wiki spam (nuked the crap out of the database), everything seems to be working still. :D

Please feel free to contribute where you see fit, especially those folks who get graphics cards that don't have any info up on the wiki yet.

Address again is http://www.myhtpc.co.za/wiki


No need to register a wiki account, but you can if you want.

Came home today to see my box switched off and the HP Health LED flashing white.
Box doesn't want to switch on now. Has anybody had this problem before, and how did you fix it?
