Hmm, so they do have us on a database and this thread has obviously made them
decide to do a mass mailout of updated drivers.
I just received the drivers to my address that's registered with elbox, and my
registered address with elbox is'nt the one I use on this list, and like I said
I've not requested new drivers for a few years.

Yes, same here.
I really appreciate Elbox support for their products.
But looking at the driver's history, seems that the main change
in the new drivers was to support the Radeon boards.
When i saw new tv.library included in the new package, i was
hoping to see the features i'm waiting for a long time. The BT878 chipset
boards support PAL-60 and NTSC-50 modes, but Elbox drivers don't. And for
us, NTSC guys this would be an important feature. At least for the ones that
intend to use the a TV card to show the AGA output, in an Workbench window.
This would provide a way to run PAL resolution games with colour. And as i
remember, when i wrote Elbox on this subject, they told me their driver
developer agreed this would be simple to implement. This was about 2 years
ago and so far these features are not yet implemented.
Maybe if more people show interest in this feature they would
move this up in their priority list...
