you can try using smb shares.
1) setup smb share on your mac:
MacDevCenter.com -- Inside Samba: Windows Sharing for the Mac
2) create subfolder called "movie" in shared folder.
3) setup the mount on dreambox (change /var/mnt/imac in pic to /var/mnt/hdd):
Mount a Mac OS X home directory on Dreambox
if all goes good dreambox will think it has a hdd and you can record using video controls.
another option is streamclip:

Hi Sean.Robinson,
What version of OSX are you using?
If you are using Leopard there is now a built in feature for setting up a shared folder. (Very similar to a PC)
If you are using an older version of OSX you will need to use a program called "sharepoints".
I used this program. It worked a treat!
I made a folder on my Mac and called it Recordings. I then used shareppoints to make this folder "shared". I then made a folder inside this folder and called it "hdd".
I then followed the guide provided on this site for setting up the mount on the dreambox.
Once I had the shared folder the dreambox recognised it and I could then record to my Mac.
Hope this helps!!
Good Luck!Comment
