As far as I know, there is no way. This is why my husband and I did not switch to Direct TV a year or so ago, when we were purchasing a HD TV. We stayed with Comcast (and purchased a Tivo HD), so we could continue to use Toast to bring our recorded shows to our Macs. Otherwise, if there had been a way to do it, we would have switched to Direct TV.
