[vdr] OT: Noise and Power Supply [Was: Re: [PATCH] RGB/PAL over VGA at variable frame rate]

Dear Theunis,

Only thing making a noise now is the already relatively "quiet" power supply.

You probably already know this, but anyway.

There are power supplies called picoPSU which have no fans and are, as far as I understand, more efficient. See [1] for example. Additionally you need an AC/DC adapter which gets, I think, pretty hot but it is placed outside of the case. Also it is a little more expensive than a “normal” PSU but you probably also save some money because of the better efficiency.

Regards,

Paul
