Hi,<br>
<br>
[snip machine specs]<br>
<br>
Should I be looking to make any adjustments to this?<br>
<br></blockquote><div>That power supply is probably overkill, although getting anything smaller may be hard these days.<br><br>Whilst it's not an ideal comparison, my myth box is a dual core 4600+ (2.4 dual core, socket 939) with 3g of memory (4g really, but, well... you know. :) ) with all the recording to a single 300G SATA drive (sd0)<br>

<br>This is only SD content. I have 1 tuner, with 5 virtual tuners off it, it's not uncommon for me to be watching 1 and recording at the same time, and occasionally, as I'm too lazy to exit live TV I can be watching 1 and recording 2 (with 1 being the thing I'm watching, although myth may be 'clever' here, I dunno?) <br>
<br>I don't comflag (I'm in the UK), but auto transcode is set to transcode stuff after a week.<br><br>Hope that's some use,<br><br>Ian<br><br></div></div>
