I actually don't watch that much TV but I do like the ability to watch my favorite program wherever I prefer. I have been streaming TV signal through my PC and internet for a long time (using Windows Media Encoder, free download from Micro$oft) The only problem I have is inability to switch channel.
The previous route I have researched is to get a device (e.g. Ocelot) that connects to a PC and is able to learn and transmit IR signal. Then use a software like Mister House to control the device through a web server. Such device is not cheap though.
Apparently I'm not the only person in the world who wants to do this. This guy has posted a cheaper solution Tivo Project 101 His solution is based on "learning" by converting IR into audio. Then play back the audio file through a device like Griffin Total Remote Transmitter Module to transmit the IR signal.

That's not true. You "do" watch a lot of TV.
