Yes, thanks. I got it 2nd-hand and hadn't looked it up.

So my next test is firewire capture using the test-mpeg2 utility and I'm capturing from every channel I have. So far I'm 30/30 with 1 channel saying I need H.264 support for gstreamer, but it plays in VLC. Will do the full lineup during commercial breaks as I watch the Jays spank the Rangers.

Is this a useful test?
