The requirements are quite simple, I think: 1. The card should support the main screen (1280x1024) and TV-Out (PAL). 2. Mplayer should work with the TV-Out. I have heard that GeForce{1,2,3} with TV-Out work quite well. Other success stories come from people using ATI cards. But none of them use FreeBSD, only Linux.
