Since I wouldn't know the first thing about writing a small program to
stimulate the chip, I opted to dig out the PC and do a visual
inspection.  Both cards look identical with the exception of a few
serial numbers.  In the process I physically took out each card in the
hopes that putting them back in would mysteriously fix it.  It works
with DVD's, so why wouldn't it work with components? :)  Oh well...

Good card:
	NTSC/NTSC-J
	26032 Rev C199
	Z8F0811 chip
	Back of card markings: 3205 8182327

Other card:
	NTSC/NTSC-J
	26032 Rev C199
	Z8F0811 chip
	Back: 3205 8162573
