I've read, and will re-read, that information. One quick question comes to mind. Does WOL work when using the A-100? That was a "must have" feature of the MVP/MVPMC dongle combination.

It's certainly possible, although I'd certainly wait until everything is working before getting it to work. It is a separate program so you will have to figure out a way to load it since if you store them on your GB-PVR server they won't be availalble. The possibilities are USB, internal drive, or copying everthing to the PCH the first time it starts normally. If you want to continue this discussion open a new thread.

I had seen you post a picture of this earlier (either here on on the NMT webiste) but I didn't see a detailed write up. I assumed LCDProc isn't something included in the PCH's, and I'm not sure I'm up to the effort required to cross-compile or whatever fancy linux thing would be required to get it working.

Most of the fancy things I've done (the custom LCDSmartie driver, the custom case, 90% of my HTPC configuration) was done before I had kids. Now I just coast on all that hard work while they get to enjoy the benefit of being able to watch Backyardigans or Hi-5 any time they want. I'm pretty sure my 2 year old will never know what "It's not on until tomorrow at 8am" means.

Anyone's refurb ship yet?

I remember reading that Syabas wasn't shipping from Oct 1-8 because it was a holiday in China.

I deal with China at work and can confirm that it is a national holiday

Hopefully shipping soon according to this thread.

Quote:We will update the orders list that fall into this batch at least 3 days before the shipping date.

Does that mean that batch will ship in 3 days? I ordered on Sep. 28th. It's been a painful wait. Smile
