[QUOTE="winsys11, post: 60199, member: 15111"] interesting you say that, MB.... I first bought a single Compro, and had digital TV decoded by the DVB bit, analogue FTA TV decoded by the analog part, and my Foxtel composite video fed into CVBS#1. This all worked _exactly_ as it should. In fact it was that setup that neccessitated the 3.5mm plug modification, as it's the compro that has the 3.5mm jack, not the pvr-150 (i was previously mistaken, the PVR-150 is full height, and has red.white.yellow RCA sockets on it). So, yes you can select CVBS input with the compro. The only reason I went to the PVR-150 for the composite video (analogue) is becuase it has a hardware codec whereas the compro does not (only for digital), and the recording was pretty crappy using the software codec (even on 3+GhzP4) I had a play just now with the composite input on the compro, but didn't get any positive results. Perhaps I didn't set it up right, or perhaps it's because I have too many cards, or maybe I just don't understand the mapping of CVBS stuff to cards... (anybody explain?) BTW, I also just tried the numeric buttons on the remote, and they work fine. A bit odd tho', the channels numbers a re in the order they appear in setup, and no way I can see to change them. So channels just go 1,2,3,4 etc, and only two digit ! I have 130 channels, so thats why I use the guide, so I don't have to remember anything :D [/QUOTE]
