[QUOTE="damhy, post: 66559, member: 181680"] You are correct about the skystar2 not having an MPEG2 decoder, but the fanless motherboard I refer to does have one built in, so I am making the assumption that by playing around with the graphs in graph editor it should be possible to ustilise it. My computer is using about 30% CPU at the moment to decode channels(AMD 2500+) And I have a suspicion that I am not sure about but I think my NVidia card, since I am using the NvDVD codecs is using my graphics card to decode the video rather than the CPU. Anyways I think that there is an outside chance of it working, even if it is very close to the limit. As for temperature, the Skystar2 may get hot but on my system everything is packed in so close that I doubt much air circulates. As you should be able to tell I just want to give it ago, but am reluctant to take money. Though I doubt anyone on here has that same setup, so its gonna end up being down to me to find out! [/QUOTE]
