cell123 0 · ID: 1 Posted February 8, 2015 Hello, I am new to this wonderful forum though I have been reading this forum for a while, first time to post. I have a question for HP N54L running xpenology, since N54L comes with a PCI slot, I am wondering if I could install a low profile video card with HDMI, then I could watch video directly from it on TV. I know installing card should be easy, I just worry there is no HDMI/video card support from DSM, anyone has experience of it. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So all in all if you want to use it as a media player you will need to run something other then DSM on it. If anyone has any other experiences I'll happily be corrected but yea...

So, no hope to run it as media player, unless run it in virtual machine in N54L. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
