Hi,
Aim/Goal:
Fast HTPC with XBMC
Low Power
SILENT (has to be silent or quite as possible)
Parts
case: Lian Li PC-Q08B (case) + additional sound proofing and replacement fans
Motherboard: Asus E35M1-I DELUXE (Hudson chipset with onboard 6310 GPU / Wifi/ passive cooled)
RAM: 4GB G.Skill DDR3 ECO Series PC3-10666 1.35v
PSU: Seasonsonic X460 (fanless psu and fully modular)

OS = Windows 7 x64 bit
at the moment i use a media player (HDI Dune) with my Qnap NAS so i will ask questions based on some features of the HDI and also some others question.
1) Does XBMC support a GOTO function? i.e. on my media player i can press GOTO and then select which part of the movie i would like to skip to.
2) does it support resume play? i.e on the media player if i watch something half way and switch of the player it remembers the position of the movie and will start back exactly where i left when i press play.
3) Can i backup my settings on XBMC? in case i need to replicate them elsewhere.
4) Will my remote a Imon based work with XBMC? at the moment it can work with WMP, Itune etc..
5) Does XBMC play full M2ts and ISO files? I have many full BDrips
6) Does it support multiple audio tracks? if so is it easy to switch between them?
7) will my setup above be sufficient? its just for playing HD movies
Thanks
