Most TVs still have the A/V ports. But with a smart TV, you should use HDMI anyway otherwise you will get a poor picture.

What model is the DirecTV box?

They shouldn't need to covert A/V to HDMI unless either they have a very outdated MPEG-2/SD-only box that needs to be replaced anyway to continue using the service, or the HDMI port is damaged meaning they need a replacement.
