Yes Martin! Either a dedicated product or something stripped out of a games console etc. I simply use old VCR's that have a failed mechanism [they don't need to be able to actually play tapes] just light up! Available for next to nothing and it makes them useful again. You could strip the modulator out of those but I don't bother, as the box makes a useful stand for a small TV. Plug in your DVD player via Scart and the RF Out goes to the TV. The household standard once upon a time. Now long gone, like VHS Video Rental Shops!
