Gtmedia Gt Combo YUV 4:2:2

The Gt Combo by Gtmedia is the latest to claim a working 4:2:2 DVB-S/S2 video solution. The Gt Combo has software that routes the 4:2:2 signal around inside the box in an attempt to view the 4:2:2 picture. Stream relay, which routes the video signal around in an attempt to view the 4:2:2 picture has been available in enigma2 receivers for years. Put simply, it does not work well enough to call it "usable" . A successful stream relay would need a lot more resources than any current fta receiver has.

Most likely, the idea for the Gt Combo to have something for 4:2:2 is nothing more than an effort by Gtmedia to sell more receivers. Anyone buying a Gt Combo thinking it will work on the 95 west 4:2:2 channels that are on c band will be disappointed. Stream relay as a 4:2:2 solution may work a little bit, but it is not going to be something most people will want to watch or use.
