Another idea what you can do is what I have done on a server I'm maintaining: I've setup VDR with compile-option "DEBUG_OSD=1" (which displays OSD on terminal). So budget cards can be used. I added the client/server-streaming plugin which provides live-tv streamed by http (http://serverip:port/channelnumber). Then I patched VDRADMIN (http://www.bartschnet.de/vdradmin-0.23-streamdev-patch.bz2) to have a additional link "Live" in the "What's running now" section, which points to the corresponding http-address of that channel. (VDRADMIN is a webfront to VDR based on Perl and Telnet-connection to VDR). On the client you need a java-script capable browser and a media-player bound to "video/mpeg" mime-type. So you can see EPG and get the live-TV by one click. You can realize this solution on one machine by using loop-back device, of course. (If you don't have EPG by satelite in the UK, you could feed it into VDR by using XMLTV). Rene -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
