I believe that getting AC-3 5.1 via HDMI will be easier with the
Colossus2. Getting Component + S/PDIF may also be easier with the
Colossus2, and that may be why I thought I had it working and it isn't now
(I have been testing with the HD-PVR2).

Feel free to send me a patch for the syslog param. I don't use that with
MythTV and so missed it.
