Clickety[^] Yes, I realize I am a bit late in the day with this, but I was outside enjoying the glorious weather we are having today - 23°C (73°F) and a clear blue sky.

You just increased my depression by a factor of 3. The air temperature where I am in the Midwest is a warm -4 F. The wind chill is a steady -15 to -20 F.

Toronto's forecast for tonight: -45F.

Here in NE Wisconsin they are predicting -55°F with the Windchill tonight and tomorrow morning. In fact they've cancelled school today and tomorrow because they are telling people not to go outside.

Wow, that is fatal weather if exposed for very long at all. I understand why school is cancelled. Those kids would not stand a chance standing outside waiting for the bus.

Reminds me of a time 15-20 years ago in Phelps WI, me and a buddy went up ice fishing and the windchill was some ungodly value somewhere in the vicinity of -65°F, I've never worn so many layers of clothes, my glasses actually froze to my face  ,caught some nice walleye though.

Actually, it is not all sunshine perfect here. The humidity is at 6%, so it's a bit dry on the eyes.

I took it as a joke and I should have used the same icon I suppose.

It's about the same here in the Mojave Desert, but rather windy. I think I'll want a sweater when I go out.

First of all the disclaimer:
This is an ultra-old-tv-capture card.
You know that each new year there are some resolutions done... my wife has just decided to double use the elliptic cardio machine we have in the home office, I trust her, I know she will (I'm worried about having to use that hell machine by myself (which I believe it's in her plans)).
Having said that, time to make the question:
I'd love to be able to remove a small TV we have in the office and replace it by our PC capturing the TV signal (we have a 24" screen in the computer which would be much better than the one on the small TV).
Having that old capture card, I wanted to install it, but, it's become a problem as in the card manufacturer there is no drivers for Windows 7 and the ones for the XP OS are not working on 7.
I was posting that here just to see if anyone here had done something similar before and could offer some help...
It seems it has a Philips chip installed but I could not offer more information apart of:
AVERMEDIA
AVER TV STUDIO 307
PCI card
inputs: analog TV + FM + remote + composite video.
outputs: sound jack.
After searching the net for information I've found plenty of Russian pages (which I don't understand and that link to "strange" files).
I've also found a Microsoft TechNet publication in which someone was recommending to get the solder and remove some soldered parts on the card... 
I've tried to use drivereasy to automatically find the right drivers but it has not worked.
Also I've tried to use the XP drivers in windows 7 but no luck.
Any idea? Apart of going to the shop to get an usb card for 20$ which is something I could think about... 
Thank you in advance!

If you have Sky, you could use SkyGo directly, and cut out the TV completely? Or NetFlix?

No Netflix or sky, neither HULU here...

No idea... I have cable TV, sitting next to a wireless router that's super high speed for streaming multimedia to any and all devices in the house, and I still can't figure out a way to send the TV signal to my PC in the next room. I can easily send PC content to the TV, but it doesn't seem to work the other way.

Just in case the data that is being send is DLNA, you can always use XBMC as a DLNA client for your PC for free.

Streaming the signal isn't the problem; squirting it into the router from the cable TV box is the problem. It's not supported. I'm guessing that, if I invest in one of these new-fangled flat TVs with all the bells and whistles, the TV might have a port that allows injecting the current program into an IP network. I don't see any other way it could work.

You probably would be able to insert a capture card in your pc and then use VLC or SERVIIO to make the streaming at real time.
That would work only for the program you would have set in the TV BOX.
See VLC ==> MEDIA ==> Capture device ==> Digital TV
And then you could select EMIT to send that capture as a stream into your network.
For sure there will be better options out there...

Roger, looking for new ways to configure serviio I've found this video about a product from avermedia which could help you to send the TV signal to any amount of devices...

Hope this helps...
