I'm using a standard PC case as it is place on a pedestal below the table - I used to have those shoe box type small form factor casing when I had my HTPC on my main AV setup.  This is for my bedroom setup.  Also using XBMC for my player, but not tweaked - would love to copy xrampage and nerveblocker's tweaks, pero kung pwede lang i-copy as in plug and play, if i need to do the manual tweak, no time for it :) 

Future plan is to replace the monitor with a 27-inch 3D panel - this is probably the biggest size that I'll get as I'm also using this frequently for browsing, and bigger size could be an eye strain if I'm too close to the monitor.

Bro these are small form factor casings.  It can only accomodate 2HDDs or 1HDD + 1 optical drive.  Siguro kung mga tower casings pwede pa.

Okay naman ung sa akin dati na binili ko tapos nabenta ko pa. Basta dahan dahan lang ang pag hila kasi talagang masisira siya pag bigla mo na tatanggalin saka may power ON and OFF na yung bago nila now. Yan lang kasi pinaka mura now for mahal nung thermaltake 2100..  ;) ;) ;) ;)

Kung meron USB na hot-swap bay na pang HTPC, that should work on an NMT.  Kung meron.  But I suppose that is SATA? 

Anyways, no big deal. hehehe.

Using SplashProEx as external player

 </players>

   <rule filetypes="mkv" player="SplashPROEx"/>
   <rule filetypes="avi" player="SplashPROEx"/>
 </rules>
</playercorefactory>



Replace playercorefactory.xml with the script above. Location: C: Program Files>>XBMC>>System>>playercorefactory.xml

Playing BDs or BD ISOs using PowerDVD as external player:

Quote
I was able to play BD ISOs in XBMC using PowerDVD10 as my external player. Here are the instructions if anybody is interested:

I try to give you a more detailled description of what you have to do, to play Blu-ray discs and iso-files using PowerDVD:

1. Create a new folder on drive C:, name it 'For_XBMC', DON'T use whitespaces, use underlines instead!
You should now have a folder 'C:\For_XBMC'.

2. Use Notepad or any other text editor to create a batch file, that will be used to play Blu-ray discs using Power DVD. It should only contain this single line:

"C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDVD10\PowerDVD10.exe" /fullscreen e:

If the drive letter of your Blu-ray disc drive is not 'E:' and/or PowerDVD was installed into another directory, change the line above accordingly. Be sure to enclose the path in double quotes. Save the file into the previously created folder, name it 'PlayBD.bat'.
You should now have a file 'C:\For_XBMC\PlayBD.bat'.

3. Insert a Blue-ray or DVD into your optical drive, wait a few moments, if PowerDVD starts via windows autoplay, quit PowerDVD. Now double click the previously created PlayBD.bat. PowerDVD should start now, playing the BD/DVD. If yes, proceed to the next step, otherwise double check the path and driveletter in 'PlayBD.bat'.

4. Check which drive letter is assigned to Virtual CloneDrive. (You can do this by double clicking an *.iso-file in the Windows-Explorer.)

5. Use Notepad or any other text editor to create another batch file, that will be used to play Blu-ray iso-files using Power DVD. It should contain these three lines:

"C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\vcdmount.exe" /d=0 %1
"C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDVD10\PowerDVD10.exe" /fullscreen f:
"C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\vcdmount.exe" /d=0 /u

If the drive letter of Virtual CloneDrive is not 'F:' and/or PowerDVD was installed into another directory, change line 2 accordingly. If VirtualCloneDrive was installed into another directory, change the pathes in lines 1 and 3 accordingly. Be sure to enclose all pathes in double quotes.
Save the file into the previously created folder, name it 'PlayBDiso.bat'.
You should now have two files: 'C:\For_XBMC\PlayBD.bat' and 'C:\For_XBMC\PlayBDiso.bat'.

6. For testing purposes, reopen PlayBDiso.bat and replace the %1 (at the end of the first line) with the path to one of your Blu-ray iso-files, e. g. "C:\Movies\The Lord Of The Ring.iso".
Now the first line of PlayBDiso.bat should look similiar to

"C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\vcdmount.exe" /d=0 "C:\Movies\The Lord Of The Ring.iso"

Leave lines 2 and 3 unchanged. Save the file into 'C:\For_XBMC\', name it 'Test.bat'. Double click 'Test.bat', the iso-file should now play in PowerDVD. If yes, congratulations, halfway there . If no, double check all pathes and the use of double quotes.

7. Use Notepad or any other text editor to create or modify the 'playercorefactory.xml' in the userdata directory.
IMPORTANT!!! DONT'T modify the 'playercorefactory.xml' in the XBMC program directory (e. g. 'C:\Program Files\XBMC\system\playercorefactory.xml')!!!
You MUST create/modify the 'playercorefactory.xml' in your userdata directory (running Windows 7, this is 'C:\Users\<YOUR_USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\use rdata'), with <YOUR_USERNAME> being your user name
It should contain these lines:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="PowerDVD (BD.iso)" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\For_XBMC\PlayBDiso.bat</filename>
<args>"{1}"</args>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
</player>
<player name="PowerDVD (BD)" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\For_XBMC\PlayBD.bat</filename>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<!-- Blu-rays -->
<rule name="Blu-Ray" protocols="bd" player="PowerDVD (BD)"/>
<rule filetypes="iso" filename=".*BD.*" player="PowerDVD (BD.iso)"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

Save it in the userdata directory (see above), name it 'playercorefactory.xml'.

8. For testing purposes, open 'playercorefactory.xml' with InternetExplorer. It should open in IE with syntax highlighting, without any error messages.

9. Rename your Blu-ray iso-files using the naming scheme <NAME_OF_THE_MOVIE>.BD.iso, e. g. 'The Lord Of The Ring.BD.iso'

10. Run XBMC, Blu-ray disc and iso-files should now automatically be played using PowerDVD. Additionally the 'pay with...' context menu should now contain the menu items 'PowerDVD (BD)' and 'PowerDVD (BD.iso)' which you can use to manually play an optical disc or iso-file using PowerDVD.

I hope this could help someone.

one thing that is very important on HTPC that i have implemented on my PC is the sound level that the fans and other moving parts produce ... it is recommended to invest on silent fans and good cooling solution ... i have replaced all the fans with large silent fans and used a liquid cooling solution on my CPU, and also chose a more modest mid-range GPU - the result is that you can hardly hear anything when you turn on the PC ... it has a switch on the casing to turn of all lights while operating, at this mode it's like the PC is really turned-off while the CPU temp is kept below 40 degrees

guys, can you share the remote controller you use with your HTPC's and also if you can also share the nominal load and full load in consumption wattage of your rigs, that would be great too!
sir try niyo po logitech K400r... im very satisfied sa nabili ko only 1620 sa pchub
very easy to use.. very handy.. matagal buhay ng battery.. i have not changed since nabili ko nung december yata..

cons lang: maliit siya for touch typing.. yung ibang keys.. parang hindi full size.. maliit kaya minsan hirap hanapin... feedback ng keys.. di ako impressed parang naiipit plastic minsan.. was expecting very good keyboard from logitech... so.. if kuha kayo ganito.. and you type alot.. kailangan niyo siguro separate keyboard for typing:D

using a10 9700 lang
di kaya 4k movies

ano ba ang ok na video card na mura lang, strictly movie playback lang ng 4k and no games
mahal kasi ryzen 2nd hand 2000 and 3000 series (yun lang kaya ng msi b350m mortar)
