I'm running the music port on my (older) Home Theatre PC:
MSI K8N Neo4 - Socket 939 Dual Core 4600 AMD CPU with 3 GB of RAM. Windows XP sp3.
My MP3 music is stored on a separate machine (unRaid NAS from Lime Technologies), connected by gigabit ethernet.
When I initially was running the HTPC with 1G of RAM, I found response at the Nuvo keypads to be acceptable, maybe a bit slow. Now with 3GB of RAM, I am very happy with scrolling through artists/albums/genres at the keypads with minimal delays.
I'm still running into the occasional audio problem (conflict) between playing movies on the HTPC and serving music to the Music Port, which I'm trying to sort out. Its like the Music Port takes control of both sound cards in the system. Could be a decoder issue - I'm sooo very close to reinstalling the HTPC, but that's not a decision to take lightly!
