Title: TV Streaming
Post by: hoyt on December 18, 2011, 07:31:03 pm

I feel like the answer to this is no, but I find myself learning new things about MC17 every time I look.  Is it possible to stream from the TV tuner card like I can with a recorded video?  I only have 1 TV, but would really like to be able to watch TV through my house - on Gizmo, WebPlay, etc.  Thanks!

Your feeling is correct.

At the moment you cannot "place-shift" live TV (stream it from the PC with the tuner in it to another networked device), however I believe they are workig on it.

If you're desparate for it, probably the easiest way to do it right now is to pick up a HDHomeRun network tuner, which plugs straight into your router and is seen by any PC on the network as a tuner device, thus giving you the ability to watch TV on any networked PC.

Don't know how you'll go with mobile devices though...
