In DVB/ATSC applications the video path isn't used. With regard to
double the bit rate, for what resolution? Admittedly I don't know the
format of the analog video data on the bus, but for a resolution of say
320x240 at 24 bit, that's only 1.8Mbit/sec. 3.6Mbit/sec if it's 48 bit
(16-bit per YUV?). 

Compare that to up to 20Mbit/sec of MPEG2 data *on the audio path*.
