[linux-dvb] OT: What is this item from ebay

[Malcolm Caldwell <malcolm.caldwell@ntu.edu.au>]

This is fairly OT - but I thought someone here might know: what is this
item that is listed on ebay?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3405988879&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:AU:1

        "You are bidding on DVB EVS Broadcast Equipment Digital Video

I don't know many of the phrases (ASI, LVDS) etc.  Is this a converter
that will convert analogue video into some kind of DVB stream?  This is
obviously broadcast equipment - would this be useful in any kind of home
setup?
