Sold HP thin client htpc build XBMC openelec

[Reflexdarky]

I am now selling my HP HTPC which has served me well over the last year, it was originally a thin client system but now modded into a HTPC set up running the award winning OPELEC os and XBMC media centre.

The Hardware specs for the HTPC are as follow

Amd Turion TL58 1.9GhZ Dual Core
1GB DDR2 memory
Expansion module which has been modded to fit full size pcie cards
AMD Radeon HD 5450 graphics card (hdmi vga Dvi)
32gb Ide dom storage
Gigabit Ethernet
Openelec With XBMC Frodo operating system

More can be seen here of how i built the system it was a small project i had going last summer

Now the best part XBMC and plugins included, I mainly streamed most of the video content with the add ons

video addons

1Channel
4od
Glow movies HD
Icefilms
Iplayer
Istream
Moviestrom
Much MoreMovies HD
Navi-x
Project Free TV (does not work on sky talktalk or BT need to use a proxy or access the scrape in navi-x in the favorites menu)
SportsDevil (great for sports like EPL football or ppv events)
Tv4ME
Tv catchup 2.0
Tv online 3.0
Viooz
Yifi Movies HD
Youtube

The system can also play local content via network or usb hard disc/key

What is included the Hpt5730 with expansion module graphics card and power supply as a bonus i will also chuck in a Windows media Centre remote IR sensor all you need is a WMC Remote no keyboard or mouse is required

I found the xbmc remote app On ios and android works great as it has the remote controls and has a keyboard so you can type in searches etc

I am looking for £100 + 8.50 insured with courier and tracking provided

overseas get in touch for the best quote

thanks for looking

How much noise does this make (fan wise) and what would shipping to Ireland be?

 

[Reflexdarky]

hi thanks for your reply the fan is quite and does not sound like a hoover the fan is optional for being plugged in or not it is powered by a usb plug inside. Shipping to Republic Of Ireland is £12.83 4 day economy service that was the best quote i could find tracking and insurance is included, If you find a better method to send the parcel i am happy to use this.

Thanks

Rob

Sounds good. And *slightly* more powerful than the raspberry pi openelec setup I currently use on the 42 inch plasma telly in the lounge lol.

Yes it will be slightly more powerful then the raspberry pi i have had no problems with playing videos and streaming content on it, I have another one of these machines setup in the front room for dad who was using a Raspberry PI before but found it was sluggish to use since he had one of these he has been really happy with it.

Machine received. However it does not boot. I have checked all internal connections and nothing has become dislodged in transit. Tried HDMI and VGA, on multiple screens and TV's however nothing works. PM sent to seller for advise on what I have missed here.

Refund received with thanks. However I object to the tone of the follow up pm suggesting the damage was my fault.. I am left out of pocket to the tune of 34,50 in return postage.
