i doubt it.

The 500c is a service provider.
The sopcast is a service provider.
What use will it be pointing the sopcast service into the 500c service, none can store one another.
Hope this helps!

so your wanting to watched tv streamed from the internet on your TV?

I'm sure that must be possible, you would just need your PC to re-encode the stream into something that your dreambox can understand (.TS file?). I'm sure VLC could do it if you knew how to set it up.

It's just the next step from playing films stored on your pc's hard drive (avi, mpg etc) over the network on the dreambox

kinda defeats the purpose right enough having to need pc... he is watching on pc anyway, and could easily just feed that to tv without needin loose bandwith and quality trying to then stream it to db.
the way the guy wants i isnt plausible on box with little memory like a dm500

only reason i ask is my cable from my pc to my tv aint long enough now cus i moved house, just thought i could do it through the network

I've done it on a dbox2, stream sopcast and TVU player, not tried on 500c, on dbox2 you would use bookmark.
see Help - IPTV for Dbox?

also found this plugin which works on the same principle, not yet played with it, just not had the time! think it will work after looking at the coding.
