Hi gbPVR users,
I'm planning to buy an "Aopen i855GMEm-LES" mainboard together with a "Celeron-M 1.5GHz" in order to
use gbPVR (I hope this system will be cool and quiet as I want to place it next to my TV set ;-)
Is anybody out there using these components and could tell me about his experiences please:
1: Does the "hibernate -> wake-up for recording -> record -> hibernate again"-thing work on them?
Will this board really wake up from hibernate at the time gbPVR writes to BIOS? (the mainboard documentation only says about "suspend-to-RAM"-Mode which is not what I mean)
2: Is the CPU powerful enough (I going to use a Hauppauge PVR 150 for encoding and a Xcard for
decoding)?
3: Will I need to buy a "special" power supply to ensure proper hibernation mode? I've heard that
BIOS must be power-supplied to enable wake-up ... is BIOS automatically supplied by all power
supplies?
Thanks for all anwers.
Alex
