never...i think...
or has anyone got it running under wine?
this will not work...(as the name wine says ( http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine ) ...it is not an windows emulator...so just forget it) as well it is for other windows dvb-apps...

but under linux there is a great small app named kaffeine ;)

yes m8 i use that one it great. but when you record it records as a kaffeine format.

do you know how to stream my cable tv channels over the net on linux so 2 or 3 people can connect to me to watch my stream? kaffeine only allows me to stream it to another pc in my network in house.

Streaming servers may but not must allow more than one client being connected at a time.
Like on the Prog Media Server, multicast depends on the type of license resp. version.
This may as well be a good reason for programmers, to allow or prevent from a connection to a multicast / broadcast capable 3rd party client as a repeater / multiplier.
Normally, Linux open source / GPL applications don't intentionally come with limitations like this. If in doubt, RTFM (M = man pages) ;)
