Hi,
I just recently discovered XBMC and I had a question about scaling. 1st, a bit about my plans.
I have about 300 DVDs and a few BluRay disks I plan to rip to a network storage system (w/o DRM). I'd like to use XBMC as my interface. I'm thinking of using a Zotac motherboard. I can run either Win XP or Linux.
Since they're the majority of my collection, upscaling of DVDs is important. What would be the best OS to use? Does XBMC act as the player or do I need additional software for that? If so, are there any recommendations?
I don't have a good grasp on XBMC yet, so please excuse if I'm asking dumb questions...
