Here we can clearly see the power-on pass-thru. Your on/off switch is connected towards the button connector and with the supplied cable you hook your mainboard up to the 'Mainboard' connector. A simple yet very clever bypass.

The bundle: The VideoMate, Remote Control, External IR sensor of the remote control, Cable for sound card's line-in, AUX-in cable, Cable for mainboard power supply connector, Adapters for aerial connectors, FM aerial, 4 software CDs, Installation manual, Software manual, batteries

The remote control is just fantastic for a product in this price range. It's very clear, user friendly and easy to operate. It's powered by two included AAA batteries. Another nice advantage here is that you can operate all software from the Compro software suite with this remote (except the Ulead software that is).

Last, the box. Heh, not a very European design.
