Watch uverse programming on mac
Is it possible to hook my uverse programming box to my 2011 Mac and use it as a tv? I looked up USB to hdmi convertion cables but they all say they are for converting frus usb to hdmi, instead of the other way around. My Mac is 27" and I have a second uverse tv box so I'd like to use my Mac like a tv if its possible.

SOme are available with STB control software and IR blaster.
Here is an example - http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/Video-Capture/product1.en.html
Another method is slingbox & a number of other s, that connect to the STB same as above, control the STB via IR blaster and is played on any computer via the internet.
What is not possible is connecting the computer at the network level (cat5 or COAX) & watching TV - Eliminating the STB.
