Yeah I think once he gets a working pal TBC and comb filter implemented it'll be way better than any market player available.

I don't think it'll every be available on windows or even have a gui but it didn't take me too long to install ubuntu and figure it out. There is a WIP document that is sort of a help document for using the software.

The hardware requirements are a capture card with the cx23880 chipset. You will also need to tap the raw rf signal on your player and make a custom cable to run to the capture card.
