Watch TV through network?

mscdex · 2006-03-06, 05:55

Hello, I am wondering if it is possible to have MediaPortal utilize a tv tuner on another computer on the network and have all the same functions as you normally would. The reason I ask is because I have an internet appliance that is now running Windows and would like to put it in the kitchen and use it as a TV/MP3 Player/Photo viewer/Weather retrieval/etc/etc. But the only thing is, since it is not a standard PC, it does not have PCI slots.
