              Here's what I do.

              Assuming you have VLC installed on your PC (I use version 1.1.4 on Ubuntu Linux)

              1.) Tune your DM to the channel you want to watch. Once you start streaming you will be unable to change channel. I have found that trying to stream an HD channel max'es out the PC I'm streaming to. You may have more success with a screamingly fast PC

              2.) On your PC, fire up a web browser and go to the page h__p://dm800se/web/subservices where dm800se is the DNS name or IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.8) of your DM. This page will return you some information that looks like this:
              <e2servicelist>
              ***8722;<e2service>
              <e2servicereference>1:0:1:189D:7FD:2:11A0000:0:0:0:</e2servicereference>
              <e2servicename>BBC 1 London</e2servicename>
              </e2service>
              </e2servicelist>
              Note the service reference in bold.

              3.) Fire up VLC on your PC. Go to Media -> Open Network Stream
              4.) In the address box insert
              h__p://dm800se/web/stream.m3u?ref=1:0:1:189D:7FD:2:11A0000:0:0:0:
              4.) Click the Play button on VLC
              5.) Wait a second or two for the stream to start

              reference the Enigma2 Webinterface wiki page for more information.
