    I don't use a front end at the moment : next step will be full IR controller implimentation now that I'm happy with the bare TT and Dscaler performance. I kinda assumed thats all part and parcel of the frontend. Its great fun this HTPC malarkey.

    I'm using the 4am Media Console from http://www.overnighttech.com/

    It's an extremely simple, yet quite versatile front end that works well combined with a pronto and girder.

    It's just got that clean look that I like.
