All modes have different capabilities. This table is an attempt to summarise what is possible with software version 201803060 and later. Please read with the notes below.

		+	2. The audio on the MPEG-2 test card and contest modes suffers from occasional break-up. This is due to insufficient CPU processing power in the Raspberry Pi 3.

		+	3. A moving viewfinder is only available in Pi Cam and TCAnim (the animated test card with the bouncing balls) modes.

		+	4. The Waveshare Touchscreen is only updated a few times each second, so movement will be displayed in a jerky fashion. The transmitted picture is smoother.

		+	31. A border is inserted around the video PAL Composite video frame. Otherwise looks good.
