Ok, i try to explain it:
My TV has 4 scartinputs, one normal input and three S-vhs/rgb inputs.
The normal input can only receive normal vhs(no rgb or vhs-if you give
shvs or rgb the picture is black-white).

The other 3 inputs can handle vhs/s-vhs/rgb.

My scartcables are fully connected.

My dvb-s card has an composite output(coax).
I go with a coax-cable(only picture) to an scartadapter(also the
sound-comes over a seperate cable) and than go into the TV(i go into
the normal input on my tv).

My other digital receiver is also connectet to my tv(over one of the 
s-vhs input connectors) with a scartcable.

Now a watch the same programm on my dvb-s and on my digital receiver.

I switch between the S-VHS(Digital receiver) and the
VHS-Signal(DVB-S), but i cannot see any qualitiy differences.

I think the DVB-s card give a little bit more than a normal signal.

Now i have a look to the homepage, the write:
    *   TV Out: Composite Video Ausgang, zum Anschluß eines
Fernsehgeräts oder Videorekorders

It also says, it is a normal composite output, but the picture quality
is really very well.
