Yes, the Motorola DCT-6200 series. And 6400 series, actually.

Other than the 6200 and 6400 series Motorola boxes, no, not that I know of. 
I'm assuming there's an equivalent for the SA3250 (the other cable box 
supported atm), but I wouldn't know. Had to patch 6200.c to get it to work 
with my own 6200 series box, but it works great now. I've actually elevated 
the FireWire input off my cable box to the first capture device in my 
production setup.
