@sean123456789 hi sean, sorry since i have not setup my server that way i'm can't give you a definitive answer. unless your set-top box is passing through the tv frequencies i don't think your tuner will be able to pick them up unless your tuner has a video in plug?

I am connecting my tuner card directly to my set-top box and every channel has no signal. My tuner card is a Hauppauge WinTV 885 tuner. Any suggestions?
