I did get one from eBay a while ago, but I couldn't get the TV out to
work, only the sound. However, it was falsely described as new & sealed
and was lacking the pass-through cable etc, and the seller refused a
refund until I got PayPal involved, so it was probably faulty and he
knew it.
Can I run X (preferably at 800x600) on my existing graphics card and
display it on my TV by passing it through the DXR3? And using the MPEG
driver will override the pass-through? If so that would be perfect.
I've been offered a Hollywood card, which is the same thing, complete
with pass-through cable, for £15.
