[islandlabs] HDMI to old video adapters mentioned at the meeting

[jfp]

We were looking at these primarily for an Internet video streaming
set-top-box.

My cable box at home has a composite video out built in already (and I
know it works).
If anybody buys one of these I'd be curious to see which devices they have
problems with.  They don't say whether they support HDCP, and if they did,
I don't know exactly how that would effect that particular situation.
