Not quite CPU temp (But is that really necessary?)<br>
What about a cheap outdoor temp sensor in the box?<br>
(They usualy have a fairly long lead to the sensor)<br>
(And only $10 at your local electronics shop)<br>
<br>
I have my server under a staircase, And the temp sensor sits in a
little nook nicely.<br>
Whenever I go past the stairs, I can see the operating temp.<br>
<br>
Yeah, I though about building it into Myth somehow. (Actual CPU/MB temp)<br>
But I really wanted something I could check without looking at a
TV/Monitor!<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">In an effort to obtain
high WAF I have relocated my amps,
the cable box and a new (almost installed) MythTV box to a purpose
built
plywood cabinet that now lives in the crawl space under my house. It is
maybe a
little less convenient in some ways but I figure once the Myth box is
completely setup there isn’t much need to get at the thing physically.
To
get the IR to work (cable box as well as PVR-350) I built an Infra-red
Extender
kit (Jaycar KC-5209) and put the receiver in a standard wall plate on
the
skirting board.</span></font></p>
