Hi Llew,

Thanks for trying but I didn't think the Enigma 2 images would need my script!
I posted it here in the 7000 section because I thought it was either a general Enigma 1 or DM7000 specific problem.

The first thing anyone who wants to stream should do, is try streaming in the normal way for their box. In the case of Enigma 1 for Audio only streaming, the way is to click the APID in the webif.
This method works fine for me when I log-on to the webif from my LAN.

The problem only occurs when I log-on to the webif remotely via the internet. As I stated in my first post, the pls (playlist) file that is sent contains the local LAN IP of my DM7000. Obviously this is of no use when I have logged-on via the internet (Local IPs that begin 192.168..... or 10.0.... etc are of no use to devices connected via the internet, they only have meaning to devices directly connected to the same LAN).
So that is where my script comes in. It edits the pls file and changes the local LAN IP to the DynDNS which I have setup for accessing my Dreambox via the internet. It then calls VLC to open (play) the edited pls file.

If anyone finds they have the same problem (local LAN IP in pls file sent to remote internet location) then please let me know?
If you have a cure, please tell me?
If you do not have a cure and would like a cure, then please try my script.
If you have a DM7000S or any Enigma 1 box and can stream Audio over the Internet without having edited the pls file nor made any changes to the Dreambox, then please let me know this also?

Would everyone also please be aware:
My script is useless to them until they have edited it to contain the LAN IP of their own Dreambox and the DynDNS address of their own Dreambox.

NB. If you don't have a DynDNS or static ISP IP or you don't know what these are, then you don't need my script!

The file as downloaded and without editing will most probably, at best, do nothing (different LAN IP from that in the script) or if their LAN IP matches the one in the script then the pls file will be edited to contain the 'random' DynDNS that is the default in the script.

Please edit the script before use as per the instructions in my posts above or the notes in the script itself.

Best wishes, John.
