Evening,
Long story short, I have an abundance of storage capacity on my server so I figured I'd store my dvd's there in raw format (no encoding) and have been going back and forth between picking a media streamer or a htpc to draw from this in the livingroom. What it comes down to really is the price difference.
Anyway, current requirements:
I'll be using a regular CRT TV 28" and my Pioneer DTS sorround amp/receiver for now.
Would be nice it I didn't have to make major changes for it to be able to do Full HD and it definately needs to have room for a tv-tuner, or two
I would prefer it being priced lower than ~380-480£
Really hope you can help me out guys, hope it's the right forum

Anyway, current requirements:
- Fairly silent (doesn't have to be passive though)
- Looks (looking for a case similiar to or Fusion 430)
- Hardware, handle playing dvd movies
- Digital out
