Waiting for version 4.x

Added by Jerome Morrow almost 11 years ago

While we wait for version 4.x, I suggest everyone to talk a bit about the previous methods we use to watch videos, highlighting the most used ones.

Here is my story:

  DVD LG 8742x @Br0max Custom Firmware 
  [Files on DVD]

2006-2008 (crt-TV 29")
  DVD LG Home Theater 5.1
  [files on DVD and USB 2GB Corsair Voyager GT]

2008 (crt-TV 29" --> LCD Sony Bravia 37" 720p)

  [Files on PC Samba Shares]

--------------------------------

--------------------------------
