The installation is old and the client doesn't want to make the needed upgrades. A long long time ago she had me install a cable that would allow her to play videos from the S-video and analog audio out of her video camera.
The cabinet is too small and removing the receiver to add another input cable is a 90 minute process. That also doesn't fit in the budget.
She may not want to add cables, but the technology hasn't exactly gone unchanged over the years, so tell her that what she wants WRT cabling doesn't matter. The signal from a video camera is immaterial to the problem you're having with the Roku- it needs what it needs and her digging her heels in and saying she doesn't want to change is her problem, not yours.
If the cabinet is too small, she needs a new one.
Making do is fine, but this isn't a system with a cassette deck/turntable/receiver or integrated amp and she's not adding an 8 Track player.
