To me the TV-out looks just like an S-Video connector, so it's either that (crappy picture) or VGA; no digital connector = no good.
Anyone using an Eee Box? (1 Viewer)

ok, DVI or HDMI is missing, but I don't need it as Server

Strange cos thats the same cpu as the eeebox and i only get 65 - 80% cpu max on 720p mkv
Anyone tried running 720P h.264 LIVE TV with no problems?
And if that is the case are you using CoreAVC for it?
Perhaps dependent of the bitrate of the broadcast?
Thinking of buying one and use CoreAVC and have it as a networked client to my TVE3 server (wired 100Mbit).
But I would like some more input
Thanks in advance!

I have been trying to get this working for some time now with mixed results. I think you are correct in saying it depends on the bitrate of the broadcast. Sometimes it works mint and other times not so good at all. I have only trying with PowerDVD codec but will try CoreAVC for you tonight. I am also running my eeeBox overclocked
What I am waiting for, is some kinda way to force the tv server only to use DVB-S as this works mint on the eeeBox. Still, as MP stands there is no easy way to do this.
I'll edit later with my CoreAVC findings.
I tried out CoreAVC and still no luck. The picture played pretty smooth but the sound was waaaaaay out of sync.

I have 60-80% CPU usage with CoreAVC and your standard 720p tv-rip(streaming over 1gbit network). I had to convert some fanart to .bmp and scaled down thumbs in tv-series to get it to work as fast as I wanted. It looks just like my old (much faster and noisier) box now, so I'm happy =)
Got my HD videos at 1:1 pixel and with s/pdif sound

Playing 720p tv rips is a little different to streaming HDTV. I also have no issues playing 720p tv rips.

You've received thanks from me TranceManNZ, Darre!
I will probably buy it anyway - since most of my channels are SDTV anyhow. And will probably be for quite some time here in Sweden (DVB-T). But now I know what to expect from it, thanks again.
Just curious, could you try out to not use RTSP when streaming, like described here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/general-support-51/tvplugin-avoiding-rtsp-multiseat-mode-test-plz-36735/?highlight=usertsp
I've seen various problems when using RTSP (especially related to HD streaming), which is completely gone when not using RTSP as described in the above thread.
