I've only watched about 20 minutes, but didn't have any audio dropouts. I'm using your build from 7/15 I guess it is.

Currently a Velodyne VRP-400, 12" forward-firing. Next upgrade likely a second one of the same just to really mess with "room modes" lol.

Will do - on it like a fat kid on a Smartie

I lift weight 4 days a week, and I had tough time getting it out the box. If you decide to get any of these subwoofers, you might want to get approval from Mrs. first. Since it a monster, it'll throw off her decorative!

I like AMD GPU than Nvidia GPU, and here is why: AMD GPU+W7+XBMC= no macroblocking when FF/RW.

I've always had better luck with AMD GPUs - I tried the onboard GPU, but that wasn't great, then switched to the HD4650 I think it was which worked fine until I got this Pioneer AVR and was disappointed to learn it wouldn't bitstream so I went and got the new Asus AMD GPU and then got disappointed because XBMC didn't support it. UGH. Hopefully this way continues to work, because outside of PVR and/or live TV functionality it's the only thing I'm missing with XBMC for a perfect HTPC. I've donated some $ to the project, but if they could hash those two things out I would donate a nice chunk of $ because I would finally feel comfy cutting the cable!

Do you see these options in W7 Control Panel?

Dear bluray will you build new version

With my 6450 I didn't install the Realtek drivers at all. I stuck with the AMD/ATI drivers.
