There's a whole forum about video processors to achieve just that. Lumagen Radiance 21x4Make sure you do a few basic searches on the forum first or most people won't reply to you on existing topics.

It’s totally incompatible with the vast majority of my gear and therefore a nearly unusable product. It can sit on the shelf forever, as far as I’m concerned. Seconded, the very same reason that I'll never upgrade(?) my Arcam AVR 600 to their current top line HDMI only AVR also.

I really don’t need my AVR to do a single thing with video except switch it, and even that doesn’t really matter. What it needs is a number of quality amps and spec surround chips. What it needs to do primarily is sound. An HDMI-only receiver seems totally stupid to me. WTF is even inside the thing? Just a digital amp and a chip with a ton of the same port wired to it? And all of them DRM-ed? And it’s totally incompatible with records, tapes, most CD players, every LD player, nearly every VCR, electronic musical instrument or any gear whatsoever made before 2004? Sounds like total garbage to me. A piece of audio gear...that can’t handle actual audio unless it’s digitized, packed and encrypted to a legal specification first, one that it remains trapped in.
Is it mobile? Like, is it for an Escalade or something? What do you play your Super Nintendo on?

How I feel about modern bookshelf stereo systems. RCA input? What's that? Here's a f***ing iPod dock though!
