Default Remotely stream TV for free
If you have a TV card and Windows XP, and would like to remotely stream TV to your laptop or handheld for free, then here you go:

Create a directory on your computer called C:\tv

Download-Windows Media Encoder 9.0 (free)
-Web server software if you do not have any, get abyss (free) from
http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/index.html
- two files from my server, place in C:\tv:
http://flyusaf.no-ip.com/download/
mediastream.exe creates the web pages
connection text is used by mediastrem to set up the web site

Set up your web site:
- create your URL, get one for free from
http://www.no-ip.com
works great if you have DSL and no static IP address
Give the directory, c:\tv "executable" ability from the web server software


Create some media encoder files
-With media encoder create one file for each TV channel you want to stream. I use FM Quality encoding which seems to work best for my laptop. I have created different encoding for my handheld for each channel.

Edit the connection.txt file with your specific information. You should only have to edit the mms://... line

Surf to your web site
http://yourname.no-ip.com/tv/mediastream.exe
select your media file to start streaming
use the second page to remotely shutdown the encoder.

Use at your own risk, it works but it is not pretty.
