Using a TV Tuner Card?

[VladTepes]

I have a TV tuner card
http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_hvr2200mc.html
and there is no slot available for it on my new 'normal' PC.

Can these be used on a FreeNAS system to, for example, stream FTA TV to other devices (say, android phone) ?

Or am I better off just selling it?

Not really, but you could probably getting it working in a jail. Lots of work though.

Cheers mate, might just sell it on then. :)

I must admit I have found that the easiest way to watch TV is using a TV.... LOL

With freenas 10 you can run full on vms that might show you to pass through the card to a proper host. This could make it easier and you could use at tuning software you wanted.
