wow half K$ box...waaay too expensive. Maybe a raspberry pi with a capture usb card and a smart linux software will be a decent answer... and can be used on both ends and is waaay cheaper.On the other hand the jpg pr mpeg transport is eating lots of bandwidth, I am thinking to a flash server/player...why not?

It does a decent job converting 1280x1024 RGB video to composite and S-Video. A cable from its RCA output direct to a TV looks pretty good. Once I introduce the Slingbox, it all falls apart. One problem is that my slingbox classic set for my maximum upload speed of 768 kilobits/sec really degrades the video just as Daniel predicted it would. It is still usable but hard to look at. The main difficulty is that the Slingbox introduces a six-second buffer delay. This just doesn't work for tuning a radio and watching the results. Back to the drawing board. I see that Grandstream makes a fairly inexpensive ($120) video server (GXV3501) aimed at the security market. Has anyone used one of these who can give input on the buffer delay before I waste the bucks? One suggestion has been the Axis servers but they are half a kilobuck. A bit rich for this. I may bring my K3 & P3 here and continue using the TS-480 for remote. I really miss the P3.
