Yes, VLC will take that stream and display it on screen, but I can't say, use this inside mythtv. I want to create a ficticious driver (device) that applications such as mythtv can use. In mythtv there is an option to use a "DVB Capture card", and so that is the card I want to be able to select, which would bring in the stream from the network. Any suggestions/help is greatly appreciated. Luc Gallant
