Re: [Freevo-users] OT: case for mini-itx

I used my old NES for my next HTPC :)
http://not.hellalame.com/nes/
It will only be for playing movies, definatly MAME, and maybe music. It's in
pieces right now for fitting a PCI video card with TV-Out into it. but once
I have freevo up on it, I will post again with some screenshots!

 Hi,
 I know this is somewhat OT, but I plan to build a htpc in a few months
 based on the eden m1 board.
 Any good suggestions for a case that won't be embarrasing beside my
 stereo? From someone who ships to Sweden?
 The closest thing I've found would be something from Morex, except I
 think they look terrible ;-)

Bo,

This is The One you Want (I suspect) - http://www.hushtechnologies.net/ .
Click-and-Drool...

Myself, I couldn't afford it :-( I had to go for the Morex Cubid 2699R,
since I also wanted to buy everything from Dustin AB.

Another suggestion is to reuse some old HiFi-equipment and put your EPIA
there instead of the old electronics. The http://www.mini-itx.com site is
full of DIY solutions like this. You need to have your thumbs properly
aligned, time, patience and access to some tools to do that though :-)


Good Luck with your project!

Hi again,

Just wanted to mention a couple of mods I made to the 2699R make it work for
me.

 - The 55W ATX power supply is a bit weak at startup. The power-block
doesn't deliver enough power when you hit the POWER button. I had to add an
4700uF/16V reservoir electrolythic capacitor in parallell with the DC-input
terminals.

 - I soldered 100 ohm resistors in series with the +12VDC leads to the fans
to lower their speed (and noise level). My Freevo is up 24-7. I haven't
experienced any temperature problems (yet:).

 - The COM2 port is excellent for connecting your LIRC receiver hardware.

 - The USB connectors on the front is perfect for connecting your USB
Gamepads (for XMAME or SNES emulators).

 Yes, it's truly sweet amd I wish I could afford it too.

  Myself, I couldn't afford it :-( I had to go for the Morex Cubid 2699R,

 After looking around a bit, this is the one I've settled on as well.
 It's not particularly good looking, but it'll do ;-)

 Hm, better check them out as well for prices.

 I usually have my thumbs in the right places, but I don't really have
 any experience in doing this kind of stuff, nor any tools. It *is*
 tempting though, I confess.

  Good Luck with your project!

 Tack!

 Bo
