That sounds good.  I'll look into doing that with my cable box.  It is supposed to have a dual tuner built into it.  We shall see if this can be exploited somehow.  Thanks for the in depth explanation.  I will see if I can get it to stream both simultaneously into the network.  Not sure.  If so this may be an option and may meet my needs.  Thanks again!!

Hello,
I've read a lot about this and have yet to find a straighforward answer.  I'm hoping someone in here might know the answer as surely someone has overcome this.  I'm trying to build a core and want to hook my cable up to it and stream the broadcasts (regardless of however many tuners it takes) to televisions throughout the house.  I'm about to buy a high end server to serve as the core and will most likely will use p4 laptops as the media computers/satellites.  I need to know before sinking a lot of money into the project though if there is a way of getting around the cable card problem.  I talked to cox and they said that I can get broadcast using a cablecard, but just don't know what this will take otherwise.  Is there something that can be hooked up in conjunction with an array of hd tuners and myth tv to obtain my premium channels.  I work away from home and am in the planning phase now.  Thanks for any help in advanced.  I sincerely appreciate it.

Cool. I'm definitely looking into it when I get home.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!  I've been looking through the wiki and it seems pretty comprehensive.  I know where I'll be spending my free time.  LOL.

I'm so excited to have found this site.  I stumbled across Linux MCE while browsing ebay, of all places, LOL.  This system kinda reminds me of a Car Computer I assembled for my Lexus SC400 several years back.  I can't wait to start working on my system.  It sounds like I can make it emulate an HAI system.  I was looking at that and the prices they wanted for the system, and was hoping to find something a little more economical.  This definitely looks like something I could do myself.  I hope to be posting here in the future when I get a little bit of time off from work and have time to actually do some of these upgrades.  Has anyone mounted a touchscreen interface into the wall or anything for a command center type interface?  That would be an awesome setup if so.  I wonder if one could put multiple touchscreens around the house (like one in the kitchen for recipes and etc).  I'm sure one could make it do whatever he/she wanted to make it do.  Maybe I should brush up on my C.  LOL.  Definitely exciting.  I wish the forum were structured a little better to make the information more accessible, like in categories.  Like MP3car.com forums are structured.  I look forward to discussing all of this later.
