titooo1 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 The media players brand Xtreamer announced today a new product Xtreamer Ultra. Its an HTPC with Intel Atom D535 Dual Core 1.80Ghz, Nvidia ION2, 4GB DD3 RAM and ALC892 sound card. The price is only 200€ and as many HTPC's it can be used as computer or with XBMC or Boxee, it will have some kind of OS preinstalled so the user can use it without hard drive. More info about specs and things like that on http://xtreamer.net/ultra/ If I'm not wrong most of the hardware of that machine can work perfectly on OS X. I have doubts about Nvidia ION2.... but then I realised that they got an iDeneb logo on their site.... so maybe they tested that it works perfectly with iDeneb What you think about guys?

RemoteWorks Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Yep looks promising, don't know if hdmi audio will work. RW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RW If HDMI audio is the only thing than wouldn't work then it's a perfect hackintosh for me. My worries are related to the video acceleration and if all the resolutions would be supported, if I'm not wrong nvidia ion uses a Geforce 9400M so it shouldn't be any problem on that part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon84 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hi, yesterday i was at the CEBIT and asked for the Xtreamer Ultra and iDeneb. The answer was that the current firmware of the System coudn´t install iDeneb. But in the next few weeks they will launch a new firmware and then it will run. So lets wait and hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doabigcheese Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Hi there, any new ideas about QE/CI on the ION2 ? I think if someone made an successfull installation of the osx86 with QE/CI I will buy this baby - specification looks really good for a new HTPC/Server Can't wait until it is realeased!! cheers, doabigcheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowM Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Sorry guys, I sometimes forget to read forums. I have used nawcom's modcd to boot retail SL 10.6.3 and upgraded to 10.6.7 After install I have changed kernel to tdev's one compiled for atoms, so it works like a charm. I'm now busy on another project, so didn't finished with HDMI audio yet. About 1080p, I was watching 3D bd-iso over network without any stuttering with w7 with powerdvd, didn't tested on osx, but osx overall performance is better than w7 Hi, good work, i have a few questions: Can you write a tutorial how you have install the retail Version?

shinzilla Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 Has anyone solved the HDMI sound problem? @ShadowM: Did you use the Atom Kernel from tdev after upgrade to 10.6.7? I can't find one for 64bit support. Or is it already includes? How did you upgrade to 10.6.7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
