You're saying in addition to it having an MPEG2 decoder, it also has an MPEG2 ENcoder for the composite video? I've had one comment that the front-end inteface the card has is unsupported by a lot of software. I gather this means under Windows?? Surely VDR bypasses all this?? Re: the RGB - There's no J2 connector on the card and I doubt it's as easy as soldering one in (otherwide dvbshop would have done that!!) Thanks Simon
