    I’m still using Meedio!  Main reason is its ability to have a single DVD library containing both my DVDs and BluRays and then launching a different player depending on which kind it is.  I don’t think that can be done in any other front-end (other than maybe Xlobby?).

    It can be done in Media Center (natively for Blu-ray and in almost all the different gallery front-ends), SageTV via plug-ins, MythTV, XBMC and Plex for sure.

    Or when you say “depending on which kind it is” do you mean resolution, NTSC vs PAL, ?

    Nope, I mean DVD vs Blu-Ray.  I have it launch WMP-HC for DVDs and TMT for Blu-Ray.

    So you’re saying that 7MC can mix DVDs and Blu-Ray discs in the same library now?  That’s good to know, thanks!

    Now, if they’d only create a model with the high-end features/PQ of the VT25 without the 3-D…

    The 3D bits are almost free (look at V10 vs. VT25 pricing) and make the 2D PQ better.  Why would you want to loose that?

    I want the better VT25 2D PQ without the VT25 cost.  I don’t think it’s the 3D technology per-se which makes the 2D PQ better, maybe I’m wrong…

    I use S3 for my front-end, however my server stays on 24/7.  All of the hard drives spin-down when not in use for ~20 minutes, and the OS is on an SSD.  I measured the total consumption with the ~9 drives spun down and it’s around 50-60W.  My backup machine sits off all week until midnight on Fridays when the server turns it on with a wake-on-lan packet, does the back-up, then shuts it off again.

    Man, I’d love to, but the USB-UIRT doesn’t wake the PC in Windows 7 64-bit.
