    • [mod] BlackL!gHtBox {Divxbox project} /! \ 56k

    1. Présentation:
    After long hours of reflexion, I decided to assemble my own PC of living room (Divxbox, Moviebox, HTPC... to call Ca as you want [​IMG]). The schedule of conditions was quickly found: a HiFi case to integrate a minimum of hardware while remaining quiet. I thus have, for that makes principal acquisitions of:
    • Carte Mother Epia M 10000 & Mini Keyboard Advance CLS RF-610
      [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Then, I am to get different the élements and to start with a case:
    • Sony CDP-M35
      [​IMG] [​IMG]
      Measurement of the beast: Width: 35.5 cm. Depth: 29 cm. Height: 8 cm
    Now, let us pass to the serious thing. All dabord to empty the entrails of the case in order to make the inventory of fixtures
    • Boitier Sony CDP-M35
      [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] It y will have hours of Dremel in seen... All the carcass and the elements of support case are moulded of a block [​IMG] I would thus pass all the detail of cutting, sandpapering, filing to you... in order to arrive at the résultat.
    Donc, while taking the sites one by one, I arrived from there has to make the place for:
    • Le reader DVD & the hard Disk... then for the mother chart
      [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Meanwhile, I received my mother chart and I took time to test it before integration
    • [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Now that all is near, I thus pass has integration Beta 1:
    • [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    This is not for the moment that an integration of test in order to be able to measure the remainder of work to be carried out. It remains for example, has to fix the mask of reader DVD & to make coincide the button open/close drawer. Then, while reconsidering the aspect of the case, I intend to remake the frontage in black chechmate and the cap in gray metalized by adding there a grid of extraction to the top of the processor. It y' has also ZE Tuning touch' [​IMG]:
    • [​IMG]
      neon U.V. (black light) Unfortunately, it will be masked by the ir receptor of the remote control. But I hope well to integrate it in the projet.
    To Be continued...

    nice start :)

    i've been thinking about gutting an old vcr and using the shell as a case for a htpc, it'd fit so much nicer with a tv. still, vcrs are old school these days, might end up looking silly :D

    News

    :D Translation powaa :rock:

    History to harmonize the case with the keyboard, I thus decide to make the cap in metalized gray:
    • [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
      And to make breathe the proco a little, I add a blowhole 5cm on the
      dessus.

    Ze Tuning touch' SHARE II:

    Great revolution for the frontage, I degage almost all and I tackle the "aesthetic" part today
    • [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

      the integration of neon U.V. this will make finally under reader DVD
      with an expert swordsman of plexi bluish. As it is black light
      and that it makes only 5cm length, it does not attract too the
      glance;)

    great idea, even if i dont say so myself.

    whats happening round the back?

    I too am converting a seperate (although a cd player not dvd player) and i would be interested in knowing how hot yours gets.

    shame you couldnt keep the facia off the original though.. that lg drive looks a little odd
