now that i got my channels, shoutcast, not that interested in streaming unless the sat box can be tuned to a different channel while i watch the channel i'm streaming, which is unlikely.Anyway

Can i surf the net? is there anything else you guys might think i will enjoy doing?
Thanks for your replies guys.

simplest way is to install vlc player ...enable openwebif in plugins ... then using firefox with the vlc plugin installed ... type the box ip into the address bar .... web interface should appear and you should be good to go clem ....find the channel you want to stream in the bouquets list ... and click on the stream icon (wee screen on the right hand side) ... job done

Can you explain in detail how, me daft. :stupid:

Can you tell me what plugins I'll need, to start with. There are a lot of plugins and the vu isn't that fond of some of them, a few cause software errors and what not. I've been a bit selective as to which plugins i might need. I'm on vix 2.4 vu up to date

The latest: I have figured out how to stream from the vu+ hard drive. How to stream live tv while on another channel i'll never figure out without help.

Thanks in advance for replies

to install the plugin its

menu/plugins/addons manager/network/web browser

download it restart box then select web browser plugin from plugins list then change a couple of settings to allow use of keyboard and mouse instead of controller job done and working internet thru duo
