Ask on nz.tech on usenet for more details. Hope it isn't as they need to
fix up the rate limiting. Watched the grammys off DVB-T and the rate
limiting when the strobe lights were flashing was dreadful. They appear
to cap it quite early and not allow any peaks in the bit rate.
For most regular shows it is excellent and beats analog due to the lack
of ghosting and static.
