Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - Busenheimer - 2013-04-03

I used to do this with my PS3 but even though it was fine for a while it then started to somehow lose the connection quite often. First I thought it was a faulty cable but I have swapped cables (both) and nothing changed then connected it from my ps3 straight to my tv and never lost the connection again. So I think it is a fault in my receiver (about 5 years old). Will using 2 cables give any problems?
Your remote control solution sounds good though! Any chance this is possible with a harmony?
Thanks!
Well the cec control is what makes it so everything talks. With the harmony it would be IR. I was using Crystalbuntu and a harmony 900 before this. Just set up an activity in the harmony software to turn on and off all your devices. Worked okay for me.
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - xeonic - 2013-04-04
Hey all,
Does anyone here have the "DC3217IYE" running Windows 8?
If so, does DXVA2 hardware acceleration with "progressive" VC-1 work for you?
I used MakeMKV to grab a copy of "Fast and Furious".
On my Windows 7-E8500 with an ATI 4830HD GPU it uses DXVA2 and plays flawlessly. If I hit 'o' I can see 'dc:ff-vc1-dxva2'
On the Windows 8-NUC, it won't use the DXVA2 and on action scenes the vpcu hits 100% and I start dropping frames. If I hit 'o' on this guy I only have 'dc:ff-vc1'. Does the 4000 iGPU not support hardware acceleration of VC-1? I have the lastest bios, drivers, and version of XBMC. I should also note that DXVA2 acceleration works flawlessly with h264 on the NUC.
I'm a little disappointed I can't get the NUC to work properly.
Thanks!

I thought this was openELEC specific problem?
Tried the xrandr command on 3.8.5 and it didn't seem to do anything, other than make the screen flash for about a second.
Anyone know why kernel 3.9 breaks HD Audio support?

32GB plenty for openELEC and 4GB ram!
Bought! £202 as the SSD has gone up in price. Still cheaper than Dabs was last time I looked.
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - ScAndal - 2013-04-04
I got my Celeron NUC setup using openelec on a 4gb flash drive with 8gb of ram.
It has played everything I have thrown at it including lossless bluray with DTS-HD
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - ZetBv - 2013-04-04
Maybe you guys already know (I did not read all the posts here), just want to share this info with you. There is a fanless NUC case
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - Raytestrak - 2013-04-04
A bit off-topic, but has anyone here ever tried the Intel Integrator Toolkit? I got my NUC this week and I saw this tool making it possible to add my windows 8 key to a .bio file, but also add a custom boot image. Thought it would be pretty cool to replace the intel logo with an xbmc logo. On the other hand, with every fast boot option enabled, you don't even get to see it
RE: Intel NUC - HTPC possibilities - freezer2k - 2013-04-04
that fanless case is really sexy,
however I really wonder if it can handle high loads over extended periods.
If the readings are correct, my i3 NUC goes up to 86C under full load, and then the fan is spinning really high.

The Tranquil case reportedly is cooler than the stock fan setup, even under load.

Cool,
please run benchmarks and post temps once you got it!

There is two diffrent versions of this case, one with 2 usb from internal to chassi, and one with two serial to the chassi ;-)

i3-3217U CPU has a 17W TDP.
I have a i3-3225 (TDP 55W) in a Hdplex fanless case - under full load with Prime95 - 68°C.
So, I am sure i3-3217U will never reach 86°C in the Impactics case.

Nice to read that :-)
