If there's mythtv support for this, I would be thrilled.

Televation employs a 1GHz digital tuner and CableCard to access broadcast TV
channels directly from a coax outlet. The device has a high-performance
transcoder that translates programming in real-time from MPEG-2 to MPEG-4,
as well as changing resolution and bit rate to match the capabilities of the
consumer's viewing device while maintaining excellent picture quality. The
device has an Ethernet jack to plug directly into the home Wi-Fi router so
the TV show can be wirelessly streamed over IP to any device connected to
the home network. To keep the programming secure while it is being streamed,
and to preserve the digital rights associated with the program, Televation
utilizes Motorola's SecureMedia IPRM-HN technology. IPRM-HN has been
approved by both CableLabs and the DTLA (Digital Transmission Licensing
Administrator), giving content owners peace of mind that their valuable
asset remains safe.
Motorola provides Software Development Kits (SDKs) for both Android and iOS
development environments, so customers can easily develop client
applications that enable the subscriber to navigate, discover and select the
show they want to watch. Motorola also provides a reference client
application for tablet devices that can be easily branded, giving customers
an alternative to developing their own application. Motorola worked closely
with engineers at Comcast Innovation Labs to develop Televation.
