I think that with some small modifications (or even without) Dscaler could be embedded and forced to work properly in CF, solving the TV issue
for FM stuff I think radiator is fine, the author may give us some feedback for small modifications (but I doubt it)

Will CF2 communicate with a standard hitachi display connected to the perallel port. I have done this before using a Futaba VFD (that emulates the standard Hitachi chip) and a WinAmp plugin. I don't think I want that in my car, but I might use CF on my HTPC which has that on the case.
