Xcard

[bobmook]

Through a rather remarkable series of coincidences I'm recieving an Xcard in exchange for helping someone out at work. I feel I should at least attempt to try it out, so I have a few questions.
Can I use the xcard to do all my upscaling? (as near as I can tell it won't work w/ ffdshow so I hope so)
From what I've gathered the xcard is not a TV card just a decoder card...is this correct?
The GB-PVR interface will be limited to 256 colors under the xcard.....correct?

Any responses/tips will be appreciated, this is a totally foreign piece of hardware to me.

1) Nope its a hardware decoder
2) Its a TVout card only
3) OSD is limited to 256 colours. The rest of it is fine.
It wont play DVD's and it has limited Divx support. Another fine example of a great card with very poor software support. This has the best picture I have ever seen. But my one ended on ebay.

Hello Darx-Starz, hello Sub
i don´t understand what you´re saying:
"Nope its a hardware decoder".."It wont play DVD's..."
Is it try that i can´t use it as a dvd-player within gbpvr??? :confused:
