@Cymor
Good question.
Case was $229+$60 or so for the Power Supply
The 1TB drive was around $110.
Each pcHDTV card was around $110, so $240.
Motherboard and processor were probably $140.

I have more exact numbers at home. I may post that at some point. I think when I first built it, I was somewhere between $600 and $800. I’ve slowly changed things and will be upgrading to 4GB of Memory the next time I find a reason to open up my case.

But honestly the largest cost was the case itself. I only needed that large of a case because it was my backend server as well as my frontend. In the future, I would like to have a much smaller frontend below my TV and a larger backend hidden from sight.

@Nerdy Liberal For any Boxee related issues, it is best to ask in the forums so everyone can benefit from the answers: http://forum.boxee.tv. In this case, I think I had a similar problem. I started using Boxee before I added a profile avatar at http://app.boxee.tv. I believe I had to delete my ~/.boxee/UserData/profiles.xml and ~/.boxee/UserData/profiles.xml.bak files before it would regenerate them with my avatar. (I would recommend backing them up before deleting). Hope that helps, best of luck!

I’ve been wondering how to get my avatar or picture on the login screen. I have Apple TV. I put it in my profile, but it doesn’t come up on my Mac or on my TV. Can someone explain to me how? Otherwise, I’m pretty satisfied with Boxee, considering it’s in alpha stage.

Many thanks.
