[PLUG] HDHomeRun with non-digital, non-HD?


I'm toying with setting up a Myth TV box after Amul's preso. I like the idea of the external HDHomeRun box, but it looks like that's digital only (http://www.silicondust.com/wiki/products/hdhomerun). I have (and am not going to change) the super-duper el-cheapo $17/mo Comcast non-digital, non-HD, no nothing plan.

I am not opposed to doing the over-the-air thing, but I have no HD TVs and no immediate plans to get one.

Can I use the HDHomeRun with my Comcast setup? Can I play it on a 10 year old non-HD TV with only coax and RCA inputs?

Another solution might be a TiVo Series 1 (and _TiVo Hacks_ :).

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks,
JP

Microsoft has single-handedly nullified Moore's Law.
Innate design flaws of Windows make a personal firewall, anti-virus
and anti-malware software mandatory. The resulting software arms race
has effectively flattened Moore's Law on hardware running Windows.
