I found some stuff talking about issues using a HushPC as a frontend. The problems that seemed to be present (at least for the Mini ITX variety) are:
- quality of the built in S-Video out
I've tried it on an 32" LCD TV (both a Sony and a Sharp), and the quality was lousy. I then tried a VGA converter (as the Sony didn't had VGA in) - better but still ppor. Now I've got the Hush connected via VGA to the Sharp TV @1280x768. Quality is excellent for my usage.
- space constraints and heat issues if throwing in a PVR-350
Don't know about that - I'm using it as a front-end only and builtin VGA out.
- driver issues with the Mini-ITX motherboard.
I've been running the machine for a while now, without any problems.
Thoughts?
If you're using a regular TV (non-LCD), results may be satisfactory. I'll be connecting a second one to a regular small-screen TV next week...
