This is basically a Windows PC with several capture cards that sends the signal over multicast. There is a client software application on the desktops to recieve them.
<br><br>Now that the IPTV appliance is end-of-life, I have been looking around for an alternative. Since there seems to be so much A/V experience here, I thought that somebody on the list might know of a solution. I have previously suggested Myth as an option but my work insists on an commercial option with a support contract.
<br><br>Requirements (and nice to haves) are:<br><br> - Receive TV from analog cable and tune to predefined channels<br> - Stream each channel over multicast<br> - Have a branded easy to use receiver application<br> - The ability to stream radio from an antenna would be a nice to have
