Hi guys, i'm totally new to this and don't really know the best for me so i need your advice.
Sidenote: I use Windows Vista, and will change to Windows 7 in the future. Have bought a Screenplay PRO HD but i gave it back already because didn't read some mkv files.
- I would like to have XBMC with AEON configured on my PC (i'm working on that)
- I would then like to see on the tv all the content on the hard drive, through XBMC configured on the PC.
My questions:
1- Would it be possible to the media center to work, when the PC is not working? What would it transmit to the tv?
2- What's the best media center to do this (be able to work with/without pc on)
i don't mind having an external hard-drive connected to the media player permanently. I've read about WDTV and Pophour but i'm not sure if they're right for me.
thank you sooooooo much for your help.
