Stream TV from PC

Hi

I just wondered, if there is any kind of software out there, that allows to
stream local tv (hooked up via a tv tuner) to a remote pc. I am traveling in
Europe a lot, and it would be nice to be able to receive some local news via
my laptop there. I'd like to use my desktop at my apartment (always on) as
some kind of server. Ideally i would like to be able to remotely change
channels and maybe even record shows.
Is there software to accomplish this?
Do I need a special TV tuner card?

thanks a bunch!
