Well after a bit of fiddling, I have been able to get VLC to multicast an analogue channel from a Winfast TV2000 XP Expert card. Unfortunately, the picture is terrible, and sound isn’t being streamed.
I can multicast a .avi quite effectively, so it appears to be an issue with the tv streaming.
I’ve now tried out my DVICO Fusion DVB-T Pro card, however VLC doesn’t seem to pick up the digital channels, and using the analogue ones gives me the same issue as before.
I think I’ll take a break from it for a while, because it’s driving me nuts.
