It could be what I'm looking for.  I'll have to take a closer look.

What I'd really like to do is set up mythtv on my big monster box (which
resides upstairs), and then be able to transmit to a television
downstairs.

Course, my video card only has S-video out, so perhaps I'd have to find a
way to transmit s-video wirelessly...

Thanks for the info.

John
