I use SageTV for my home video needs and have SageTV extenders at all of the TVs in my house (it seems like that there are a few others that use both systems as well). SageTV is now open source and one of the developers has written code to allow it to capture most types of generic video feeds that may come over your network.

I would like to be able to feed a video stream output from BI into SageTV - ideally one "channel" with a multi camera view and perhaps one channel for each camera. Is this possible? Does Blue Iris output video streams in such a way that would be by other sources, like SageTV? Or would I just have to go right to the original camera stream and bypass BI completely?

if sage can receive a standard h.264 stream then yes...
 
Yes, I am pretty sure that you can with the Generic Pipe encoder that was recently written to allow the capture of various types of streams. What is the URL or rtsp:// identifier I would use?

/h264/cam1 where cam1 is the camera shortname
