Consept of CXADC

Practically all TV/Multimedia decoder chips have Analogue to Digital conversion in real time onboard as video chips confrom to 4fsc 14.3Mhz NTSC and 17.9Mhz PAL in 16-bit samples standard for the most part this makes them perfect for SDR and outher applications.

Thanks to this fact and that these chips have an "RAW16" testing mode intergated to allow raw samples this opens up an large amount of data capture potential as an capture and review later ossiliscope or even more ambisous goals such as post decoding of raw signal data like in the LD-Decode & VHS-Decode project's archiving media with absolute peservation, this is the main driving force for the continued advacnement of this driver and the cheepo hardware around it.
