You obviously need some source for the TV stream. It could be either you team up with some provider in that area or roll your own server (you still need licensing for streamed material unless of own making). If you set up your own service you can make up own API's for channel selection, etc and render suitably transcoded streams that yield good enough quality on the screen resolution of the target phone. If you can stream video from a server on the Internet (and you can) it means you can stream TV as well. You might want to develop a TV methaphor for the UI and stream realtime or recorded content. YouTube is an example of recorded content.

Well, thats fine, but are there any interfaces for Demultiplexer or multiplexer or Tuner that are supported by Android..???? I know javax.media has them, but how abt their compatibility with android.?? Are they inherently available or do we need to import the libraries into Android..???
