CJSnet -- this took a while...ehem.. - but here it goes:

http://www.bostreammail.com/kalev/mce/rips/

3 files are there:
Composite-rec-5mb.mpg
FireDTV-dvb-c_rec_5mb.mpg
s-video.rec_5mb.mpg

A composite grab, s-video grab (using a JS Techn/ UK RGB-to-svideo
converter) and I also happen to have a DVB-C tuner so I was also to capture
the mpg2 stream directly. It's simply ~5MB "test-screens" shown late at
night. Comments welcome!
