Perhaps.  Certainly not for the "out of the box" crowd, but that's not
to say that somebody can't fill the gap between a pile of hardware and
an out of the box solution including the transcoder.  Certainly should
not allow for somebody to muck with modelines and such, but a product
could loom here.

Hear ya brother.

I meant to ask.  The picture looks properly overscanned?  i.e. you are
not seeing all 7??x48? (forget what res you said you have your modeline
at) pixels right?  Just the ones that would normally show up on a real
broadcast -- missing that certain percentage of those around the border.
