G'Day all,

First time poster to this NG, hoping someone can help me.

Here is my question:

I want to help a friend who is a professional gambler - don't laugh; He's
LOADED ;)   What I need is to let him see live horse racing from Hong Kong
straight to his desktop in Australia. The resolution needs to be such, that
he can see things like ; the muscle tone of the horses, how far from the
fence they are when racing, etc etc.

I have looked at several options including using a video camera at Hong Kong
to capture the image from TV to using a remote control program from
Australia to see a live picture using a WinTV card in Hong Kong. I'm now not
sure of which way to turn on this.

What setup for the capture can anyone recommend to get the clarity of
picture I need ? What transmission harware will I need ?

If anyone can help me pretty soon, it would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks
in advance,  Nathan ,
