stream from your dreambox to a remote computer

[mfaraj57]

Hi
The program designed to work with windiws xp and dreambox 500 .Although it works with vista and other enigma 1 based dreamboxes but give proplems
The program code belong to visual basic 6 which is old language for modern systems add to this the difficult jop to connect two different systems micorsoft windows and dreambox linux.
However i am working now to release new edition from the program coded by modern .net programming language which should be more stable with windows vista and even windows xp and as rule when dreambox freeze the program will freeze and so many proplems of the program will be solved by restarting the dreambox

Hi dxc,
use this software it will work far better, just add the IP address of your brother into it on startup, no need for vcl player, it uses WDP instead.

Hi
some points about dreambox viewer 4
1- The program is designed to work within home lan and not to control or view remotely by internet
the program depends upon windows media player and hope next release wmp12 will make restreaming is easier so restreaming over internet will be included in the program in the next version
2- Program is designed for windows xp and has many proplems with vista although it works
beta version from program is more stable and compatible with vista even doesnot need setup ,you can find it in this link and any suggestions are welcome to the email included in the program

Hello, on my LAN I use VLC, version 0.8.6i. Neweer versions did not work. 0.8.6i works, but most of the time not at once. I have to swicht channels some time (by webx-tv connection), then the streaming video comes up. Is there a solution for this minor problem?

What you need !

-a pc
-a dreambox or a linux based box
-ethernet cable
-video files...
and these softwares(attached in this post)

Note please,this will work on every box .

Now follow these steps on your pc:


-Install on your pc VLC Media Player 0.8.1
-after the installation go on your desktop and on the icon of the program go to property-destination and add this line after the words already wrote "--intf wxwin --extraintf=http" .
-start vcl from the same icon you have edited
-go to settings-preferences-input on Server port write 8080 and save this change
-open the file xml of vlc client 0.2.3
-on "server ip" write the ip of your pc on "config stardir" the path where are the files you want see on your box
-save these changes

ON your dreambox


-copy the files of vcl client 0.2.3 in this way(by a ftp software):

"vlc.xml" on "/var/tuxbox/config"
"vlc.cfg" and "vlc.so" on "/var/tuxbox/plugins"

-go on your dream and open the plugins area(often the yellow button)and open "VideoLanClient"...now you can see all the files of that folder.

hmm

Unfortunatly this doesnt work out to well for me, i feel i'm banging my head into the wall...

Hope i can make some of the guides work out.

this is has been working well but recently i cant access anything on the left hand side, bouquets, providers, all services.. it comes up with errors saying not connected to dreambox but it is still streaming video..?? even when i press refresh it is ok until i click on providers or satellite, then the error message comes back..

i still continue to view stream, even in the settings when i use test connection it says ok..?

Any ideas..??

[alunfennell]

opsmonkey I am having the same issue ...I found out that a lot of this program is built on other trial based software and the licensing has run out for some of it causing different issues... I have spent some time on this and it Fuc!ed my head for ages untill I found the underlined problem, noting we can do untill new version is released...
