I have myself thinked about the possibility of running vdr/xineliboutput client on low end systems that just have usb 2.0 but not any graphic cards or free pci slots available.
Has anybody experiences from the "usb vga" or "usb dvi" graphic card adapters like these?
I think the answer is here: "Sewell claims that these USB-driven monitors have the same quality as standard DVI monitors at displays of* up to 20-inches*" And what about all the GPU power? Someone has to handle MPEG decoding in hardware.
As I see it, if you want low power silent box in your living room you'll have to keep a server with cards/USBs somewhere in your basement. If I had a basement, that's exactly that I would do :)
