Not that I'm aware of. It runs System 7.5.something with a set of special extensions to enable the MPEG decoder and analog video output. The current thinking is that these things won't put out a video signal without a presence on the ISDN or cable lines. I've tried using standard old RF (cable TV) connections to see if I can see anything on my TV, but that went nowhere. I haven't got ISDN, but even if I did, I'd have no idea of knowing what kind of data it is expecting over the line.

I've also tried using the SCART port (okay, I remember doing this, but I don't actually remember buying an SCART adapter, so something is faulty in my memory...), but that also went nowhere.

There's a fellow either on the 68kMLA or AF that claims his outputs a video signal. Of course, he's never produced any screencaps or other demonstrable evidence that he's not blowing smoke... Wink

Peace,
Drew
