My experience with softdevice is that even recently its A/V sync is quite
poor. Xine is very good at syncing, but there's more lag when changing
channels etc due to buffering. I'm now using df_xine with a Matrox G450.

You need an adaptor for S-Video and composite too, but you can buy one
ready made from Matrox. It's not outrageously expensive, worth the money
IMO to avoid some very fiddly soldering. Unfortunately they don't seem
to sell one for RGB
