Aha! Now THAT is a very good question, and one that I would surely like to
hear the answer to. (:
The inputs aren't CMYK, BTW. Actually, they're not RGB (analog or
digital), either. Unless you're a lucky European with a SCART connector.

It's Y'Pb'Pr', which is analog color-difference video (interlaced or
progressive scan), generically known as "YUV".
According to the DVD FAQ, YUV to RGB transcoders costing $200 to $300 are
rumoured to exist but "seem hard to track down." It mentions a $700
converter is available from avscience (
http://www.avscience.com) and that
Extron (
http://www.extron.com) has one for $900.
ok
