I have a 70 inch Sharp, Revo R3700 connected to a drobo with 12 TB of storage and have about 9 TB of media. The R3700 shoots the audio and video to my Pioneer Elite SC 27 amp and my speakers are a set of B&W XT surrounds and floor standing. I want to get my XBMC working like some of the great set ups I've seen here.I am in Davis. What type polish are you looking for. It sounds to me like you've got a pretty nice setup already (9TB of media! I'm only at a lowly 6 )
I live in SF by the ball park and have a full bar at my place and great views of the city. I can bring my set up to you if you can help, I just want this thing nicely set up. Thanks

can i ask why you set your server to wake up the machine to run an update each morning at 6am i usually just have xbmc set to update when i first turn it you can still navigate and play a video whilst xbmc is scanning for new content i too have a mysql database setup for the same purpose and i am not really sure of the point of this as no matter which htpc i turn on the first one will scan in the new content and update the library and it will automatically show up if i turn on the other machine later on

My guess (although I just have sickbeard force library updates when new content is added) would be that he leaves his machine on all the time, and therefor needs to force an update.

Nothing phenomenal here in terms of tech but here ya go :
LG50PS8000
2x Jailbroken ATV2's with XMBC (Of course)
1x WD Live
Sonos music system Connected to below
LG 5.1 System
Ipad 1 & 2 running the Sonos app (Excellent)
Little Dell Zino in custom Ikea case (With fans and controller)
and a 26" LG TV/PC screen
My Book live 2tb NAS feeding the 2 ATV's and WD Live along with itunes libary feeding the Sonos system (No need for a running PC/Mac)
As I say, kinda basic in terms of tech, my LG 5.1 system was like £120 on Amazon yet everything works perfect and sounds good, I like my little setup.
Next is a 3D Projector and 120" screen
