The HDHomeRun allows you to watch over-the-air digital TV from all computers in your home network and it’s compatible with VLC, MythTV, SageTV and coming soon, Windows Media Center. Also, you can watch multiple channels on same or multiple computers.
DVR Playground test drove one recently and here’s an excerpt:
Since the HDHomeRun plugs into your network, there is no opening of a computer case required, and there is minimal configuration of software required to use the unit. In other words, for the easiest method of recording OTA programming with your homebrew DVR, get this unit. If you need more than two tuners, you can simply add more HDHomeruns.
