There's no particular magic to a direct video input, Gaz, it's just that it's direct. It's the conversion to RF in your box that loses you the quality; putting it through a VCR, and _another_ conversion from RF back to s-video or composite video just loses more.

Is there really no video (or audio) output on your box? Even when I had analogue the boxes I had always had them.
