Wonder when
someone will start hacking DTV set-top boxes to do scan
conversion? I noticed that one I bought (with coupon) had an RS-232
port on the back. Hooked up a terminal set 9600-n-8-1 and darned if
I didn't get a register display and command prompt!
I don't recognize the OS however.
It is something proprietary. All boxes with the StI5518 chip shares more
or less the same software.
