Dreambox streaming to internet,it was never easy like this

[saintomer]

Hi Mfaraj57,
I would like to thank you for this great software and what you have achieved so far.
It seems that I was one of the lucky ones who managed to get it running without too much problem, but that was probably more luck than anything else !
As has been mentioned above by Ian1095 it would be good if we could choose which audio stream we wanted to use and would it be at all possible to stream from the 'media' folder of the dreambox (hdd, usb device) to save transfering files back to the Pc's 'media' folder ?
keep up the good work
Thankyou again,
Saintomer.

Thanks Saintomer for your words
My object in first release of the program to make it very simple as much as possible and although of that few acheive good streaming.
Really the problem is not in the program itself and always in ability in dns address creation and port forwarding apart from that streaming from program is direct and easy
Regrading streaming from dreambox media folder directly,you give good idea to include in next version or update in addition to streaming language priority bug

Hi Mfaraj57,

as previously said many thanks for a great app. Your kind asistance as helped many.

But for me I'm still struggling to get this to work fully, my dyndns account is active and working as I can access dream web control and also ping it.

I have set it up so that I can see the channel and start to stream it, some channels are better than others (Living TV dtreams really well for me), not so good on the Sly sports ones. Anyway when I click on preview both internet and locally I get the media player screen appear and say connecting then nothing, no error messages etc, So I press play again and same thing happens.


I have checked I have set up the port forwarding correctly for 1234 & 5678 to my local static IP 192.168.1.XXX

Also why do some channels stream much better than others?

Please can you offer any advise I really want to make this work.

Thanks in advance.

Kev.

Hi rruunneerr and thank you
By displaying the channel in restreaming window the role of the program ends and if the ports are opened and forwarded properly and dns address created and updated streaming shoud work
Lower preview button to examine port forwarding and upper to examine port and dns address
The problem with you i think in port forwarding
what to do
1- please check again port 1234 is opened and forwarded to "computer ip" by this tool

Best tool to check port is opened or not


2- be sure that your vlc player is .99 version
3- Check if firewall is blocking port 1234
4- 1234 port in some Europian blocked by internet service providers

other issue regarding different streaming quality from different channels this property of enigma1 dreamboxes and not present in enigma2 dreamboxes and related to enigma1 structure

Hi and thanks for your detailed advice as always.

I have checked both ports 1234 & 5678 and both are open according to the program you suggested.

My yndns account is updated but the IP is my local PC IP number but the one on the internet (example 86.13.36.217), is this correct. Afterall it says it is updated in my router and I can see the Dreambox web control interface.

The only other issue I can think of is VLC 0.99, I have the latest 1.01.

But I heard on another forum that it was also working with 1.01

Do you think it could be this?

Cheers,

Kev.

Hi
The problem is vlc 1.0.1 ,streaming is not working with version 1.0.1 or 1.0.0
install .99 and the program should work
