Doesn't the mythstreamtv thing someone mentioned do this?
Other than that I don't see why you can't go into setup and set the live tv recording profile on your machine at work to whatever you want.. You should actually be able to get decent quality if you can really get 1Mbps bandwidth. I'd set the video resolution to maybe 320x240 mpeg 4 @ 384kbps and the audio at relatively low quality to start and see what happens.. You should be able to go up from those numbers. You do probably want to do mpeg4 encoding instead of the mpeg2 a hauppage card sends out if your streaming over the internet...
Rhetorical Question: Will using up that much bandwidth cause a problem with your boss (if any)? That might be a consideration if the settings are high enough..

Ok, I admit this should go under the "MythTV to the Extreme" category, but if you've seen My Myth Setup <https://www.timekiller.org/filelib/mythtv.png> then this wouldn't sound that bizarre.
I want to be able to stream live TV to my Office. I use Linux as my only OS at work, and have installed MythTV on my machine. I also have a vtun tunnel to my home, so the master backend is accessible by it's internal IP. I can launch Myth, and it connects, and everything works great except for one thing: My upstream at home is not fast enough to sustain a video feed. I have cable Internet access that advertises 1Mbps upstream, although I am not currently getting that (I am working with them to get the upstream I am paying for). What I would like (if it's possible) is to define a VERY low quality Recording profile, and have that used for Live TV for the Office Frontend.
Is there a way to configure this in Myth ? I have 3 tuners with DirecTV, so even if I had to dedicated 1 tuner to the lower resolution while I am at work, I could live with that.
Anyone out there have any ideas ?
