Coax is an RF input, "composite" is baseband video, usually using an RCA
connector here in the USA, but I've heard tell of SCART in the EU :-)

There won't be any EIT on analog channels, and I'd think you would need some
sort of listings grabber, probably XMLTV from some source, but I'm not aware
of what listings sources might be available in your neck of the woods. Us
yanks are spoiled by Schedules Direct.
So I would expect both EIT and "No Grabber" to not work.
Anyone in or near the Netherlands here? Who might know what grabber would
work?
