Yeah - that's the sucker.

They came over to do us a demo about 8 months ago but we decided against
stocking it as it was just too expensive (and their demo was flaky at the
time) but their digital terrestrial TV server was an impressive looking bit
of kit!

IIRC the SCART -> VideoLAN device (the equivalent of the MPEG encoder /
server) was a bit under a grand and the VideoLAN -> SCART device was
about
=A3400 but there was quite a lot of functionality built in to them.
