It works - the driver (and the card) accept mpeg streams within the
standard resoltions and fps (I think it's mentioned in the driver docs)
and generate the appropriate output. It's up to your tv set however to
display this accordingly...

You can test if it works by replaying the mpegs with 'tuxplayer' (in the
driver dirs) or rename it to 001.vdr [...] and replay it via VDR.
