 ok there are two use-cases.

 1) a stand-alone box which is connected to an *existing*
non-EOMA-compliant TV.  in this case, the front-facing HDMI cable
would be used.

 2) an EOMA-compliant "dumb screen" into which a TV-receiver-capable
EOMA-compliant CPU card with on-board DVB-T or ISDB-T capabilities
would be plugged.

 in this latter case, such ISDB-T cards allow complete bypassing of
all "security" measures because they output the "secuwwahhh" video as
24-pin RGB/TTL and to be frank i don't give a flying f***.

 hollywood is dead.
