Calling up your cable provider might be a good starting point as they would know what service providers in the area handle things like this. Tell them you are looking at putting a private cable network in to your building and they should be able to help. | |

You break out the actual channels as individual signals and then put those signals on your own channels. You would have to be running your own private cable network. The signal from your computer would be run in just like any of the other channels, though some specialized hardware may be able to take care of remapping the channels for you internally. You then need the bi-directional hardware to control the computer's playback. | |

What would I need to do to intercept the cable tv signal and then add my own signal? How can I convert a video stream from my desktop into a cable tv signal and how can I add this signal and re-broadcast it? | |
