[QUOTE="knutinh, post: 75553, member: 14776"] Realistically, if I were to build an IP-based local cable tv system, how far would system bring me? In terms of re-using existing coax (are there good inexpensive modems for that) In terms of minimum front-end cost (if 20 people are to use MP for viewing) In terms of stability on this large scale Future proofing (HD, etc) I think that professional systems are very expensive and not necessarily flexible or user friendly. But probably tried and tested. What would the cost and benefit of say a basement server with 20 tuners (DVB-T, DVB-S2), a local coax-based lan (one or a couple of chains of users), VIA-C3 "embedded" boxes with DX9 gpu for those that didnt want to use a regular PC or HTPC for viewing. regards Knut [/QUOTE]
