    Default Streaming Audio but no Video

    Hi,

    Few of the channels are streaming audio but no video, they are using MP4 codec.
    I am using DM500 and running latest Gemini Image (maxvar). I am not sure how to update the codec on it?
    any idea? thanks

    you do not need to down load any programs to play avi dix on your dreambox.
    simply open web browser type
    http://192.168.x.x (change x.x to your dreambox ip)
    enter: root / dreambox (unless you have chaned it i do reccommend that you do!!!)(can not be done here)
    click on stream on the left hand side bottom.
    click on settings.
    click on edit server settings now change this to you pc ip , then put the path in for your films eg
    C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\movies (put yours in not this 1 !) set dvd drive letter.
    go to dreambox press yellow button, plugins, press movie player and away you go....
    you have all you need ......

    when u say enter root/dreambox (or password) where do we do this?

    ie after loading the web interface and b4 clicking on stream on the left hand side. what do we do?


    thanks again

    Can you stream to the older boxes (7000 and 500) in this way,it would save me loads of time having to burn films to dvd's?

    Yes you can. All files will have to be converted to MPEG 2 format though.
