Then I made a simple mount for both the SSD and HDD.Īnd this is how it looked after being gutted and a bit of work being done. I also found a neat little spot for the HDD activity light on the bottom of the case. It was super easy to set up and if you ever wonder what IR receiver you should be using on your PC, the answer is ALWAYS FLIRC. This is also where the FLIRC IR receiver goes, but I hadn't installed it at this point. I fitted the standard microswitches and LEDs in place of the stock items. Unfortunately not all TV’s support this and that leaves you with a few options with disadvantages. One of the really nice things about working on this TV was that everything was modular, like this unit which houses the on/off button and the power light. HDMI-CEC is a wonderful thing when you have it It enables your TV to relay control signals over the HDMI cable which gives you the ability to control your Kodi mediaplayer, or similar device, with your TV remote. I fitted a kettle lead socket on the back of the case to enable both the screen and PSU to be plugged in easily. Next step was to start preparing the case. Then, take all the nasty bits somewhere where they can be safely recycled. They have a vaccum inside so just give it a tap on the neck gently until you hear a hissing. Next trick is to remove the cathode from the tube. Use an insulated screwdriver linked up to the earth cable and slide it under this suckery bit. If you're going to take apart a CRT TV or monitor, it's really important to properly discharge the tube as they can hold enough juice to cause you a lot of damage, even if they've been off for years.

May I present to you all my "Restomod TV" project based around a Mini-ITX board, XBMC OpenELEC media centre and a 1980s CRT TV.įor quite a while I'd wanted to build a PC into something a bit different and after spotting this 1980s Bang & Olufsen Beovision 7702 fairly locally on eBay, the idea came to create an XBMC based media centre PC inside.
