Default Band I rf-out 'mod' for budget Blu ray player?

Has anyone had the back off one of the budget-price Blu ray players from Sony, LG &c.? What chance incorporating an Aurora within the case, to produce a 'one-box', no-licence-required 405-line home entertainment source for people wanting to run an old TV?

You could do this with a normal standard definition DVD player if it can output CVBS via its SCART socket.

Do Blu-ray players have analogue video outputs at all though? If they do and they output standard definition interlaced CVBS regardless of the type of disk being played then it ought to be possible.

The idea came to me when I was considering fitting an rf-out socket to a DVD player, to accommodate the earlier-type 'tuner-only' TV. Instead, I found a VHS/DVD combination player with a built-in modulator, so the scheme was shelved. Feeding signals via the aerial socket appears to be distinctly 'tape age'!
