The VIA mini-itx boards all have PCI slots, and some have integrated
compact-flash slots, so you can boot from a flash card instead of
netboot if you want. They have integrated everything, but spdif out
only, not in. Many people use them for Mythtv frontend/slave backend
boxes with the storage remotely mounted via NFS, or all-in-one with a
quiet local hard drive.
Ok, It is a shame about the no spdif in.
Here in the UK we have some set top boxes called Sky. They are satellite
TV boxes that decrypt the DVB stream and then output it as RGB or
Composite. The decrypt function cannot be done in software by using a
DVB-S PCI card and a PC, so I have to use the RGB/Composite output. They
also have an spdif out for AC3 output.
I would like to record the RGB or Composite output of this box, together
with the high quality SPDIF out, instead of the rather bad quality
analog output that they have.
So, your suggestion meets all my requirements, except the spdif in.
