If the machine is getting that hot with use, have you not looked into a way of more efficiantly cooling the device? Our tiny box has an Athlon 64 X2 5000 in it, and it runs fine.. the box is also no larger than a Sky box/ DVD player... Just a thought, but also, the package that Farran recommends sounds quite suitable for your needs, rather than running through manual configuration of encoder/decoder settings. -- Kris Douglas Softdel Limited Hosting Services Web: www.softdel.net Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Company No. 6135915 Registered in England And Northern Ireland -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
