To be frank, it is the same general concept as Logitech's previous touchscreen remotes, except it runs on a phone or tablet. I actually like how smartphones and tablets are increasingly used as interfaces for operating other devices remotely. Since I already have it in the room with me, why not...

And it will handle media center fine with an appropriate IR receiver?

My 5-6 year old Harmony remote is starting to give up the ghost and the inexpensive wireless keyboard I bought to use with WMC is getting erratic in its operation. I am wondering if there is a good solution available to combine everything into one remote? Tablet based solutions (wife and I...

Legal? No, but I have been ripping some of my older DVDs and virtually all of my CDs for years and have sold them off at yard sales to keep them from cluttering up the house. I doubt any of the authorities are going to fret over someone selling movies from 50 cents to a few dollars to their...

I imagine that many of these studios/networks have some ownership in some of the advertising agencies that shoot the commercials. It isn't that they wouldn't be open to some alternatives, but they've just got themselves so intertwined in the machine that they have made themselves inflexible...

In ffdshow, it uses the term SPDIF for any digital audio output, which would include HDMI. Setting the number of speakers in Windows simply allows it to simulate surround sound by converting a stereo signal to however many surround speakers you select. You can leave it set to two speaker stereo...

If you are asking about bitstreaming audio, check out my reply to the 6750/6950 bitstreaming question. It takes a few extra steps to force Windows to pass through the digital audio to your receiver.

Did you get it working? Disabling the Microsoft/Windows Audio foundation seemed to be what did the trick for me.

I used the shark 007 codecs, under one of the tabs on the config utility there is an option to disable the Windows Audio Media foundation or something to that effect. You'll also need to check the boxes to enable digital pass-through in the utility as well. Since I did that, I'm getting Dolby...

I am looking for a Socket 775 mATX board for a HTPC setup, I would prefer one with built in HDMI, but it is not an absolute must. I have a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4 rev2.1 board I recently pulled out of my main PC when upgrading to my current i5-2500k rig. Asking $60 shipped or will trade for a...

Yeah, I passed it over when I was at MC in Atlanta last month because I thought they wanted too much money for it. Now it seems that they are the only ones with it in stock and with shipping it is nearly $26!!

A small amount of regular automotive antifreeze with some distilled water would accomplish the same thing. That was the mix I ran when I had a water cooled rig way back when. Seemed to work just fine. Incidentally, I still have the water block I used in the setup and I didn't see any signs...

Compaq had a habit of understating the amount of memory a computer could handle. My Evo n610 could supposedly only support up to 1GB RAM, but I came across a 1GB stick, added it to the 512MB stick already present, and it worked. Like one of the previous posters mentioned, it probably had...
