I think the answer to my question is "such a beast does not exist" but I'll ask<br>it anyway.<br><br>Does anyone know of a magic little box that will accept HDTV via component video<br>and downscale it to an outbound s-video port? I'm trying to find a way to get a
<br>downscaled ESPNHD feed into my mythtv box since that should be a much cleaner<br>source than recording analog cable. TWC said they disable the s-video output<br>for HD channels on their scientific atlanta 3250HD so that rules that out.
