You've a monitor, but not an actual television so?
It sounds like you need something like what we call A set-top box here. Either the legitimate kind for Freeview, or a dodgybox for Freeview of the other channels too.
There's probably a version of that available in North America. With HDMI so universal I'd be surprised if your monitor didn't support it.
Getting sound out might be tricky though. Very little has analague audio these days. If you've Optical you can get HDMI to optical outputs. You might also be able to run the box through your Blue Ray like an old VCR. It really depends on the project.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.
