AFAIK ver 2.1 has the same connectors (etc) as the 2.2 version, i have both 
cards here before me.

The doc's are the same, (at a quick glance),  According to the single 
acompanying page called Technical Info.

Mini plug: Line out
Black:      S/PDIF out
White:      Left Channel
Red:         Right Channel
Yellow:     TV out
Why should they be different, those are International standards arn't they.?

I have the German documentation here and it definatly states, "TV out" and 
NOT video in.

As for the ver-2.2 card it has not been used here yet. (just in case one has 
questions about its behaviour).
