Hi
I have a Samsung TV 3D UE40F6300 and a home theater Samsung HT-E4500 connected by HDMI. I have ARC functionnality between TV and HT.
I'm searching a small HTPC (like Zotac Zbox or Intel NUC) in order to play MKV 1080p High profile level 4.1 (I'm making myself my MKV 1080p with a CRF 18 high profileand level 4.1) and MKV 3D Half SBS (or Half TAB) with same specifications (and perhaps in the future Full SBS or Full TAB but it's optional).
I'm searching the minimal configuration to play this type of videos.
I would like also to play DTS sound, I don't know if I can connect HTPC to TV and use ARC functionnality or if I must use an optical output between HTPC and HT (I don't have HDMI input on HT).
Is a CPU like Celeron 1007u could be enough ? Or is it necessary to use an i3 ?
Thanks !
