Comcast talks about a future with compatible equipment. In the meantime it is hard to do what you want to do. I have a video card that can output HD. That is not what you have in mind. Capture cards take an input, as you describe. Still not sure you can do what you want to do. Some tuner cards can do cable with a cable card. Input the coaxial rf from the wall, tune cable. Maybe not as good as the Comcast box, but it could get you HD from cable. Hope you figure out something. Maybe someone else has better information than I do.
