Hi all, i usually use my media player to play all my avi files on my tv. I starting to play up so am thinking of just using it as a external drive and hopefully convert this comp to a htpc. My question is what is the cheapest way to do it?
I realise i need some sort of card to give me rca plugs to connect to my tv and most likely will need software as well.
What is the best free software to use? Is media portal ok?(theres a link in prophetvx's post) The tv it will be used on atm is a 68cm crt type(yeah i know its outdated but i wont update until its stuffed). The comp has an amd seperon 3100+ 1.8gig with 1.87 gig of ram(should be 2 but think the vid card is using the rest).
Any help appreciated
Cheers Shane
