Ummm... there is no way that NTSC SD video has a Luma B/W of 13.5MHz. more like 4-5MHz, ~6 in PAL land.

And BTW, what source would you have that is outputing in component and yet is not already in a digital format and why would you want to capture this through an analog pipe? If it is off of a PVR or a DVD, either grab the .ts file or rip it - will certainly be faster and better results.
