Yes I know you'll probably all just think "where has he been, we've all been there for ages" but...I've only just got a wi-fi router and it's great. Sorry but I'm still impressed by being able to access the files I want on my x50v from my PC while wandering the house.
Have streamed video from my PC and was very impressed by the quality. Anyway my question- So far I have just browsed to the files on my PC (on the axim) and played them. I understand how to stream using windows media encoder but what I want next is to buy a tv card so I can stream it to my axim, I guess that would be pretty straight forward, selecting the tv card as my source etc etc but what I want to be able to do is flick through channels without having to go near my pc. Is this just a crazy pipe dream? Or can one of you crazy geniuses tell me how I go about such a feat? It's not like I'm asking for a solution to world hunger but sometime I just feel the need to lie in bed watching telly on me ppc. Anyhoo is there a specific tv card that is best suited for this or software? Using win xp home edition service pack 2 and have powercinema 4. Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Before buying your tv tuner card, make sure it is one of the ORB compatible ones; not all are (including mine ).
