Hi guys I was wondering if there was any freeware progams similar to the virtual media jukebox program ?? I just want something that displays covers and i can select a variety of songs off different albums. Thanks in advance

thanks jeff here i am trying to download instead of capturing, why do i always take the hard option:b

Sorry guys I havent been clear enough, i am NOT after roms but rather images (jpg etc) of either the opening screen or screen shots etc of older video games, which i believe is legal. Sorry if i am mistaken and please delete the thread if that is the case.

Hi guys Im not sure this is entirly the right place for this question but im sure most of you will know the answer. Where can i get some images for mame roms ? i am loading them for a module in myhtpc and i cant seem to get any regonision from the site i have tried. Thanks for any help.:D

Hi Garrett This can be done with the right software and time. There is some info about doing this with the myhtpc front end, but requires other programs etc to get it all to work. I believe mainlobby also does (i have no experience with this front end, but im sure a search would be able to...

Thanks Craig

Hi guys i am very new to the htpc area and am looking at building one and i have a question with the Maudio revolution 7.1 card. Can you connect it straight to a power amp or does it have to go through a receiver. All the pictures i have seen only have 4 rca outs and a digital. So i am...

Thanks James Yes that is what i meant, upon re-reading my post it isnt very clear im sure i was reading that rotels are not great with 4 ohm speakers, which is why i was asking. So thanks again for clearing that up Michael

Hi everyone I need some help AGAIN I have been doing some reading and im not sure if i have added 2 and 2 from different posts and articles and gotten 22. So could someone clarify things for me. Are rotel amps not a good match for M&K speakers due to 4 ohm output ? Any advice? being...

Thanks kevin Which one is the 47 we have different model no. here in Oz which is a pain in the ar$e. I dont know why they dont keep them the same...:thumbsdown:

Hey Guys Im going to buy a universal player i auditioned the yamaha, but the Australian version doesnt have progressive scan:angry: So im looking at the pioneers does anyone have any experiences, good / bad / indifferent ? I know they didnt get the greatest reviews in the progressive...

BUMP come on guys someone must know something..........

Tim those are the mark 2s if they were the 2s i would not be asking i would be driving to get them already lol:D

Hey everyone Need some advice i have seen what maybe a good deal on B&W 801s (mk1) , but i have never heard them so i need some advice on the quality of them. Yes i know i well need to listen but b4 i drive a few hours what are peoples thought versus M&K SS150 which are the speakers i am...

hey guys have a look at 'music library' from wensoft, it appears to do all you want. Its not freeware but it does have a 30day trial which gives you pleanty of time to evaluate it. Ive been using it on and off (have lost it a few times due to crashes, ps. ITS NOT causing the crash)...

Hey everyone I was wondering is there a "cheapish" audio switcher for optical connections. I have run out on my pioneer receiver and updating is not my main priority ( saving for m&ks ). So has anyone seen a switcher, or am i out of luck. thanks in advance

Bill Hi as another suggestion i am very happy with my Yamaha cdr hd1000 ( please note im in Australia so the model numbers may vary, its very embarrassing when you think you know what you are talking about to a salesman, and he is talking about the same item with a different number ):b...

Doug I agree with most of the peoples suggestions re room treatments and professionals etc, but to throw one more opinion into the mix rather than putting away a sizable chunk for future upgrades have a look at meridian, their processors they allow for upgrades as and when required. Im not...

Tommy Do a search you will find quite a few posts (I'm saving for a set so, i have done it a few times when i see something else that catches my eye to remind myself why im saving). I think they are the best HT speakers I have heard ( I don't torture myself by listening to speakers i could...

Thanks for the advice Steve K.

Thanks Steve These both look like what im after. Is there a reason you chose to go with music library or did you find out about it first ?? Anyway thanks again. PS do you know of any reputable on line dealers who sell M&K speakers, the cost the earth here in Australia ( it is...

Hey The same as lots of others out there i use the DVD profiler, and think that its a great idea. Is there a similar product for CDs ??? If so can someone send me a address of where to download it Thanks

Wayne I understand what you are saying but the reason i was asking is i have a few amps floating around and 1 set of old dipole speakers and just thought i may get some extra use out of them. And if investing in another set is going to add to the system i thought it may be a cheaper option...

Wayne I thought that by running 2 complete speaker systems as described above the sound stage may be improved as long as they arent cancelling each other out all over the place. I take it you think its a bad idea ?? Cheers Michael

Hi I posted this in the speakers section but thought it may be better off in this section too. (newbies !!!) If you run a secondary set of front L&R and Surround speakers (dipolar) at a lower level than the primary (direct) speaker will it improve the sound stage or will it muddy the...

Hi Firstly as a newbie to the HTF thanks a heap to everyone, i have learned heaps, but scarily learned that i now know about a tenth of what i need to. My suggestion would be to add a glossary to the newcomers section. I have dabbled in the HT field for a couple of years and have been...
