I bought and installed the AGP version just recently.. i'm currently 
using the svideo out which is quite good.  I havent had time to figure 
out if the component out works yet.  Just a but of warnning tho the fan 
they put on it is a bit of a screamer.. it's annoying me to no end.  
I'll be putting a Artic cooling NV6 on it soon enough.  if you make some 
headway with getting the component out working lemme know.  I cant use 
any of the XvMC functions with it (or any of my nvidia cards) myth keeps 
crashing anytime the OSD fades, changing channels.. or pausing.. 
searching the list i find i'm not the only one with this problem
