I get totally confused with the various HD, *TSC standards and so I have
to ask what is probably a simple question. Will this device work with
regular old boring cable? Not HD, not Digital, just regular 1-99 (119?)
cable television? My ex-roommate read the page and was upset it didnt
have NTSC which is what he said is necessary for doing digital cable tv,
and I read a rewiew that said " Just to clarify, the HDHomeRun currently
does not support analog TV." So then what DOES it support?
