Sending TV signals from Virgin STB to laptop
Is there a way that I can send TV signals from my STB to a lap-top - perhaps over my wireless network?
I wish to watch Sky News on my laptop and have a wireless broadband network at home.
Thanks

No, I have neither a TV card, nor access to an aerial feed.

Youll need to bye a USB encoder/decoder plug-in for your laptop and a digisender kit to plug into the CABLE box .

The other option is stupidy expensive.
Wifi broadcasting costs alot you have to by the base station system that connects to the cable box.
