I have myself thinked about the possibility of running vdr/xineliboutput

Has anybody experiences from the "usb vga" or "usb dvi" graphic card
adapters like these?
I think the answer is here:
"Sewell claims that these USB-driven monitors have the same quality as standard DVI monitors at displays of up to 20-inches"
And what about all the GPU power? Someone has to handle MPEG decoding in hardware.
 
As I see it, if you want low power silent box in your living room you'll have to keep a server with cards/USBs somewhere in your basement. If I had a basement, that's exactly that I would do :)
