Once you have the channels, the next step is to pick up a few old RF modulators and run your own cable TV network at home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7m7OW2xrJE

I recently bought an HDMI Transmitter and as my laptop's HDMI port doesn't output sound. I've rigged a Bluetooth RX/TX dongle plugged in to the headphone-out port which made me giddy in nerd. It's voodoo.

Being able to stream from my laptop to my TV in 1080p without any additional cables and using emulators for games is kind of dark magic.

I need to purchase a usb DAC and better quality BT streaming devices, creative a web-ui to finish the setup. But that was cool, would love to do something when I upgrade from an apartment especially with the 3x cable monitors.

Is latency noticable for games or NBD?
