That should work. I had a 6320 with AV into which I installed by hooking up
the cable an Apple TV tuner (model unknown) picked up from a junk dealer -
it worked with Video Player after attaching a rabbit's ear antenna.

Someone tells me most TV tuners found inside TV boxes (and Mac Performas)
are actually made by Sony/Philips. So I am on the lookout for discarded TV
sets I can salvage the tuner from.
