I've been looking around for some possible combination of a home theater
system, just as I've noticed others are doing as well on here.
The best box I've noticed, for a standard ATX is micro-ATX case, very neat
box about 14cm high, 60x50cm withxdepth. A micro ATX is not expensive mobo
to get, so such a build is not that expensive.
However, I noticed a complete "dream" build when checking it out.
case:

mobo:

But this requires a slim-dvd which is a bit expensive, and would make the
complete case somewhere around €450 (Euros) for me. Prolly cheaper for some
others. The case in question requires two things that need to be looked out
for, and I haven't solved yet.
#1) A Remote control. Haven't found any useful items like this yet, so if
anyone could give me pointers to a useful project or where to buy. I'd
appreciate it.
#2) The graphics and mpeg decoder that are built into the VIA ITX card,
weather these are supported under mythtv. Wether anyone has tried these
cards, I believe they've been around for a while, and use a VIA Unichrome (Or
Castlerock AGP) graphics. Don't know anything about'em so info is
appreciated.
