if a TV tuner card is installed on a server of a local area network then how to share TV broadcasts over LAN
 
Do you expect to share all the TV channels or only one?
 
Thing is how to do it. no matter if only one channel
 
OK, next question, what O/S are you running?
 
tell me if o/s is win2000 or winxp
 
It could be either. O/S means Operating System.

Hello,

You didn't mention what TV tuner card is in question. So this advice suits to 'general advice only'.

- You need to write an device driver or adapt an existing device driver 'TV picture' memory and somehow transmit this over network.

for example...

- using streaming services (W2K advanced server)

- writing 'TV picture' (in server machine ie. the computer which the card is installed) to the memroy mapped file. Clients then read that memory mapped file and 'construct TV picture' in their screens.
