Here's a guide on how to stream your dreambox channels over the internet.

There's a few apps needed and your PC needs to be on 24/7 to transcode the stream to a manageable bitrate.

does web x tv work for you,if so download webcamMax then join ustream for free then you cant start up web x tv and with the webcam program capture the screen which in turn uploads it to ustream at the same time,works for me anyway,,,also try a few different versions of v.l.c

posted on another forum,not tried myself yet,,mine is working lol apart from sound,,





This is a way of doing it- bit of work though
On Home PC, install GBPVR. install dboxrecorder plugin, add channels manually to plugin. get TV schedules using xmltv file.

Then use web interface to GBPVR from work pc, from TV guide select priogram to stream, change steraming parameters to best match your Broadband upload speed. Use player on work PC, usually VLC is preferred but WMP is also supported.

Lot of work just for streaming but you get all the PVR functions as well, ie recording shows/series etc.

There still is no VLC for nokia (symbian) trying the Helix Project other than that keep checking this site as there are a few of us working on the nokia to dreambox thing...

I use a dBox and usually just use yWeb (type ip address into internet explorer) and goto live TV. I get video and audio only on some channels, then video only on others on nothing at all. PS using ucode14

Next I have tried GBPVR but couldn't get the dbox plugin to work.

Then NeutrinoTV but it couldn't initialize the dbox and channel changes were slow, seemed to have less channels available too.

Then tried dboxtv (link from the neutrinoTV site). This gave the most channels and quickest channel changes but still no sound on some.

The sound issue does not effect Dreamboxes (as far as I can tell with new images) so is it an image issue???

Has anyone got all channels with sound (on dbox)?
What was the setup, or can anyone explain why can we not get sound an all the channels?

Great will try your guide later, cannot download dreamView 0.1.4 at the moment as their page is not working.

I was using X Live grabber indoors with a wireless router and that worked quite well. The majority of channels worked.

Any tried it outside the house today so it went over the Internet and not the WAN, it kept breaking up as the quality was set to to high. Will this lower the quality so it be pretty decent ?

Good guide, i managed to download today. Is there anyway you can change dreamView so it broadcast over port 80, ithe video channel port is something like 31399.

working on this now... seems I can stream at home. but I cant stream to my girls... is it possible that she needs something like activex installed? shes got vlc installed and seems to be doing everything correctly.. so now Im wondering what extra she needs. Streams seem to work fine for another friend

It works and i have tried it in the past but... if you have a slow speed connection (i have 24MBitU/1MbitD) you will have glitches and you have to lower the streaming sample rate to a lower one.

I have also used this guide in the past to watch Dreambox Streams with my modded XBOX using XBMC (i have to find that file again somewhere to give it to you)...;)

Hi Guys,

Couple of questions regarding streaming. Can different channels be viewed by two different people connected to the same dreambox?

Also getting the dreambox connected to the internet via a wireless router, what do you guys use, wireless bridges or the ethernet over power route... what would use the more power f left on 24/7?

cheers

Another slighlty easier way is install something like 'teamviewer' which is a great remote desktop solution,
you can just access your home computer and watch it thru this internally without a lot of hassle ;)

Ballistic

Cheers Satman, some food for thought,

I take it you can only watch whatever channel is on the box at the time?

yes but you can control it completly from web interface incuding changing channels.

so basically there is a need for a PC to be on 24-7 in order to be bale to watch the DB remotely?

caveman_nige
8th May, 2009, 01:58 PM
correct, no pc on the home network is required to be on for the dm to stream from it...

quick tip.... do not use the lastest version of the VLC player on your puter as it will not work, just download the older version as it works straight away, or at least it does for me.. http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/other/8/vlc-player-0-8-6d-690/

I could never get VLC to work properly or webx tv. with my 500c the only thing that worked staright out of hte box was something called "Tunisa Sat Dreambox Player and Streamer 5"

http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f39/dreambox-streaming-internet-never-easy-like-45719/index2.html

Its been posted before

I have just got to add it the stream of hed channels is not viewable. you can tell what the program is but its not viewable. maybe its the limitations of a 500c

DreamView and VLC working perfect for me, can even change the audio track via VLCs audio menu.

I have it streaming to VLC on a Mac, PC and my Jailbroken iPhone across the net with very good quality.

This is much easier then using Tunisa Sats one.
