HI everyone, I'Maurizio from Italy, future Group #6 or 7 and
I'm sorry for my bad english.
I'm looking for a linux HTPC, for running XBMC and our OpenRemote controller (domotic controller); I read the forum for some weeks and now I need some suggestions.
I will connect the HTPC to our DENON AV-4310, our TV and our projector are both connected to the AV via hdmi. We han a QNAP NAS, wired connected, where We saved all our multimedia.
Movies: BD 1080, DVD, tv series, mp4 for iPad, some Mkv, files mov, etc...
Music: mp3, flac etc...
Pictures: jpg... Etc...
Our Goals:
See all our multimedia with XBMC
AUDIO HD, DTS HD or DTS MA (sorry but I can only watch BD with HD AUDIO)
this is the Htpc:
Case Silverstone LC20 Black Smooth Aluminium Case + 450W PSU
Processor (CPU) AMD A10-5800K Quad Core APU (3.8GHz) & Radeon™ HD 7660D Graphics
Motherboard ASUS® F2A85-M: (M-ATX, DDR3, USB 3.0, 6Gb/s)
Memory (RAM) 8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB)
Graphics Card 2GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 660 - DVI, HDMI, VGA - 3D Vision Ready
Memory - 1st Hard Disk 120GB INTEL® 520 SERIES SSD, SATA 6 Gb/s (upto 550MB/sR | 520MB/sW)
DVD/BLU-RAY Drive 12x BLU-RAY WRITER DRIVE, 16x DVD ±R/±RW
Memory Card Reader INTERNAL 52 IN 1 CARD READER (XD, MS, CF, SD, etc) + 1 x USB 2.0 PORT
Sound Card ONBOARD 10 CHANNEL (7.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)
Network Facilities WIRELESS-N (150Mbps) 3dBi HIGH GAIN USB ADAPTER
USB Options 2 x USB 3.0 PORTS + 4 x USB 2.0 PORTS AS STANDARD
Firewire 3 Port IEEE 1394a Firewire PCI Card
OS: Linux i'd like to use DEBIAN, now Is already installed in a old Celeron, whith Java jdk6 and eibnetmux and our Domotic controller works fine
Remote: We use iPhone, iPad, iPadMini, Android panel with the xbmc apps or We can use our Openremote panels, (We already use a panels with, denon, BD-dune, appletv, sat decoder, projector sending the ir commands with the great IR-TRANS)
PS and OFF TOPIC: OpenRemote is a great project, Open Source Automation Platform, www.openremote.org
Thanks for any suggestions, do you think the htpc could be' noisy ?
Do you think is enough to play AUDIO HD ?
