by  "normally"  he means (so I assume) the TV out of the full featured DVB
card. (since VDR was originally designed for such cards)

nowadays,  there are several possibilities for the "output device". One of
them  is  of  course  the full featured DVB card. One other is a DXR3 MPEG
decoder  card (I think, they are also called Hollywood). There were others
recently  like  "Software  Output  device",  which  is able to produce the
output on a framebuffer capable console. I think, there are others as well
(like xine output plugin, streaming plugin, ond probably others)
