I did this a while ago...
I am almost afraid to admit this but I used Real Video, set up the free
evaluation "limited stream count" server and the "free" producer. The
producers input was /dev/bt??? (it's been a while but is the same type of
card as yours) and produced to the local server.
I configured this to produce the "250Kbit" stream and just fired up the
"free" real player on my linux laptop. I could site on my couch and watch
real tv and real-player tv with sound... Pun intended?
Real server can also record ("archive") if you want it to, not that a vcr
or tivo can't do these for you...
Hope this helps.

Hello everyone. This question is not meant that serious, but
nevertheless with interest:
in my LAN i have running a gateway, a workstation and a laptop. The
workstation is equipped with a TV card (BT878) and works just fine.
Is there a way to view TV on my laptop by using the PC and the LAN?
I know this will pollute the LAN, but well, it is my private little one
:-)
Knowing that USB _almost_ ha enough bandwidth for viewing TV i wonder if
i can use my LAN for TV redirection.
Any ideas what ways exist? Maybe simple X forwarding, but are there
other ways (what about xhost/xauth settings)?
My LAN is a normal 100mbit ethernet.
Thanx all,
Timo
