HTPC and HD100 in same room ?
Thinking about moving the HTPC back into the TV room, next to the HD100. I miss the web browsing, DVD, etc.
The problem would be the remote. Both the HTPC and the HD100 currently use the same codes. One solution would be to re-program all of the HTPC codes, a real PIA. That's all I can think of though. Is anyone doing this ? |

Not having an HD100, I can't imagine what benefit it would have over an HTPC that was sitting right next to it. I mean, why would you use the HD100 if the HTPC is in the room?
I know that a question doesn't really answer your question, but I can't imagine many people doing what you're doing, so... Stu |

I have the HD100 sitting right next to my HTPC. The reason I purchased it is because even though I enjoy my HTPC hobby it was beginning to consume too much of my time, especially when I wanted to watch something and the GUI crashed. I don't have that problem any more. To answer the OPs question, just run Sage in service mode and don't run the GUI. Problem solved! |

The HD100 will be used for viewing all the recorded videos. The HTPC will be used for watching DVD's and web browsing.
Thinking about it, the HTPC can be controlled via a wireless keyboard and mouse. That eliminates the remote problem. The biggest downside is once again having to deal with video drivers, ugggh ... |

I've got a really nice gaming/htpc, but I'm also seriously considering removing it from my theater and instead putting it back in my office. I just don't use it in the theater at all. I think I might get back into PC gaming if I had the PC setup for that use.
If I wanna surf, I have my laptop for that. The HTPC is wasted now that I have the HD100. |
