So close yet.......

When I first saw this I was rather hoping this might do genlock to an
RGB broadcast signal eg a FreeView/Sky feed and allow overlay which is
the big bit missing in my setup - and I'm sure many others would love
this too.  If it had transparency even better. S-video as an
option/alternate would be useful but composite quality is just not quite
up to it for me. Bearing in mind for a useful 'pop up on screen' system
(if that's the application) then it has to be inserted over what you
typically use as your source.

Did they provide any info on RGB Keith and can it genlock/overlay  to a
50Hz RGB source ?
