first i'd like to explain the setup i have in my livingroom - i have i pc running sagetv(with hauppage pvr250 hw mpg2 card) to watch and record live tv through the tv-out on my ati card. and i use my xbox primary to watch movies/series over lan(smb) from one of my pc's.
- now i would like to integrate this a bit more because 1. tv-out is'nt giving me the best picture-quality, 2. its is a bit annoying switching av channel on tv back and forth between xbox and pc.

- what i would like to happen is - that i can(i realize xbox probably would have problems with timeshifting the mpg stream) - so all it needs to do is show the movie(live tv signal from my htpc) streamed over my lan - and if i push pause on my hauppage remote the live picture would pause.. because xbox only shows the stream. now is this possible using todays sw, maybe xbmc for win supports this with xbmx for xbox? or maybe it is possible to get xbmc act like a sagetv-client?

yeah! this sounds great!
streaming live tv or webcam or windows desktop to the xbox r0x!

web-video-streaming to xbmc is afaik possible (i hope so)
so it should be easy to stream wdm-content to the xbox using a streming-server.

but it would be much more comfortable if there is a ui rechable by a button in the main menu in xbmc.

i hope you can understand me :-)
