I've ordered one of the 4-channel H.264 DVR cards that Andrew did the initial OR development on.  While I wait for the card to arrive from Hong Kong, I'd like to get the output portion sorted.  What sort of video does playoutd put out?  Motion JPEG?

It'll output raw 720x480 4:2:2 component (Cb-Y-Cr-Y packed) if you're using StdoutOutput. You should be able to view it with something like...

./playoutd | mplayer -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo ntsc:uyvy -

Of course you'll have to install mplayer from your distribution's package repository before this will work.
