This problem has been around for so long, it’s slightly insulting that it’s taken this long to resolve. Those of you using AMD video cards and an HDMI receiver will definitely want to look into this. The issue rears its head when you switch your AV Receiver away from your HTPC (or boot-up without your AV Receiver/ TV on and […]
Read moreI’m sure most of us here are already using a lot of the plugins on this list, but it’s a nice starting point for newer users who may not be aware of some of these options. Due to the popularity of our (fairly outdated) top five plugins post here at Hack7MC let’s take a look at some of the new […]

Read moreSeems like a ton of podcasts this week, maybe it’s just my being tired and seeing so many 🙂 Enjoy! It’s all about beginners this week.

It’s a battle over the video outputs on the back of your cable box or DVR. Who gets to control which outputs you can use—the movie studios or you? On May 7, 2010 the FCC decided that the […]

What you’re looking at here is a picture of the board that makes the new HDHomeRun CableCARD tuner work. You might notice the four squares on the right, those are the tuners, yes there are four — […]
