Re: video distribution



KAT5.

The KAT5 video distribution product works well (I've used S-Video and
composite, not RGB/Component, so can't comment on them).

In addition, the "composite video" channel on a KAT5 box works
well for
distributing 5.1 sound as a digital stream, since composite video and
SP/DIF
are both the same form factors AND impedance.

Typically, the problem is control. Personally, I use a xAP-hardware box to
control my hifi, but it's no longer manufactured (not enough demand) :-(
