Getting ready to build my next HTPC and going to try documenting the whole thing with @storify #htpc2012

Install won’t detect SSD. I knew this was going too smoothly #htpc2012

Suspect bad SATA cable. Starting over using DVD drive cable instead. SSD now detected in BIOS #htpc2012

RT @rothgar: Getting ready to build my next HTPC and going to try documenting the whole thing with @storify #htpc2012

@rothgar Nice! I will use #HTPC2012 when tweeting HTPC. Are you streaming content via wmc to Xbox?

277 mb of updates. Time to download @XBMC and start tweaking #htpc2012

I’m all done with my #htpc2012 work today. The goal is to cancel cable next Friday. Still need to hook up tuners.

@rothgar let me know if your interested in a Ceton 4 tuner card #HTPC2012

@Salcedo_George we’ll see if there’s demand in the house to bring cable back. If there is, I’ll probably be interested. #htpc2012

Continuing work on #htpc2012 I have settled on just using 7MC instead XBMC because Netflix integration is better. Now trying to customize

mceRemote2vlc is going to work great with MediaBrowser http://www.arenddeboer.com/mce-remote-with-vlc/ #htpc2012

Here’s how to disable the “subtitle” in vlc that shows what file you’re playing http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=94071 #htpc2012

I have a few extra minutes so I’m working on my #htpc2012 computer. Still trying to get it finished for Friday

Sata power came unplugged. That’s 2 problems that have been fixed by just plugging something in #htpc2012

I can’t say enough good things about SiliconDust @HDHomeRun_US tuner. Best tuner I’ve ever purchased #htpc2012

I seriously forget how easy and awesome WM7 is. The channel editing is the best of any media center.

I picked a hell of a weekend to cancel cable. Why didn’t anyone tell me the #xgames are on?!

I’m very impressed @Revision3 has a WMC plugin. This just made cable cutting even easier http://revision3.com/leanback_windows #htpc2012

Trying to get my network drives to automatically reconnect after restart. They keep showing up as “disconnected” #htpc2012

.@revision3 Please help! your lean back plugin won’t install on my 720p TV. Requires 1024×768!! http://revision3.com/leanback_windows #htpc2012

TunerfreeMCE installed! Configuring anthem it’s time for a break. Maybe watch some more #xgames before I cut the cord. #htpc2012

Trying out @mymovies_info for movie management on my #htpc2012. The default movie player leaves a lot to be desired.

Little did I remember I bought @SecondRun last year. Oh well, $8 is still a bargain #htpc2012
