What would you do with slow and limited TV out?

I found the BCM's TV output frame buffer.  Writes to it allow the image to be updated instantly and without any interruptions in the signal.  This will allow video and more.  See http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9787#comment28147

Chronon:
Neat.  I wish my 5g wasn't dead.   :'(

Is it dead due to one of the inductors getting ripped off the board?  I've managed to solder one back on even though I had to solder to just a tiny bit of fine wire under the inductor.

Chronon:
Yes.  That's the one.

Thanks for the encouragement.  I have actually come by a cheap (dead) main board with the inductors on it, so I can have a go this weekend.

Great!  That should be an easier and better fix than attaching a ripped off inductor.

On the 30G there are supposed to be rubber pieces around both inductors.  They prevent the HD from slamming into the inductors if the iPod is dropped.  You can add some rubber between the HD and metal frame if you are missing those.
