My first Freesat hd htpc - check my spec please?

[tommytinkle]

Hey,

I've just priced up a htpc setup which I hope will work with freesat and am wondering if you guys could check it for me please?



Any changes you'd make please feel free to comment or change stuff, I want this to be a measure twice cut once affair!

The machine needs to -

• 
  Watch Freesat tv, pause record etc

• 
  Store pictures, hence the hard drives for raid just incase! Though perhaps bigger ones are needed.

• 
  Stream internet tv services

• 
  Play Bluray discs with a drive I already have

Please do be critical, any suggestions would be greatfully received.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, do you have any experience with freesat and media centre at all? From research on the net it looks perfectly do-able but I've not seen much posted on here about it!

Hey,

Thanks for the replies - any of you have any experience with the satellite cards?
