When you talk about 'switched video' are you talking about this ?
I'm trying to get up to speed with current cable practices.
That's exactly it...
Although I just learned something myself from the CC Wiki.

A common misconception is that there is a CableCARD 2.0 physical card that will provide two way services and will not be compatible with CableCARD 1.0 certified devices. This is not the case. CableCARD 2.0 host devices will only use either SCards or MCards that also work with CableCARD 1.0.
Interactive CableCARD 2.0 features rely on additional circuitry in the CableCARD Host device, not what is on the physical card. There is no directionality about the cards. This makes the name “CableCARD 2.0” extremely misleading, since it mostly has nothing to do with the physical CableCARDs.
hmmmmm, this is interesting because I was lead to believe by reading elsewhere that CC 2.0 would not be compatible with 1.0 devices. Still leaves a lot left to know for sure.. no proof of concept here.
