In Topic: Zotac Atom HTPC 'Build'

Double check, but I think an SSD is too big.  You need a smaller PCI-E hard drive.



Oh, I looked too fast, this isn't a NUC, it's a small Zotac box.  Interesting...

jmwills - Yeah, those are really cool.  I looked at them, but by the time you add up the box, hard drive, and memory, it starts to climb in price a bit.

 

Schoondoggy - I'll have to give this a go... thanks!

Thanks for the response! Sorry it took me so long to see you had posted.

 

Sounds like it may be a worth a shot.  Any idea how you got the drivers to finally install or was it just luck?


In Topic: Ultraviolet vs Blu-Ray - Time to Rethink?

I see, I'm using Vudu and Ultraviolet interchangeably.  I'm still trying to understand the exact hierarchy, but I understand that Ultraviolet manages the permissions and shows that I 'own' a movie.  Vudu actually delivers the content.  So an HDX video from Vudu uses Ultraviolet to grant me access.  Sorry if I wasn't clear on that.

I am sitting at my TV watching Prometheus on bluray on my HTPC and HDX Vudu on my Xbox on two different inputs on my receiver. I'm switching between the two and there are very small differences. The HTPC is slightly louder and brighter (both settings that can be adjusted). The contrast on the Xbox actually looks a little better to my eye. You should try this yourself if you have the same gear.
