this is an old topic i know... but is there now a better alternative to streaming from the PC?? is there a plugin now that anyone knows about? surely there most be a Linux codec that will work. at the moment i am transfering Divx files to my Xbox, but i wish i could use the Dreambox and didnt have to keep pulling everything out from under the TV, to swap the Network cable over. | ||

| its not possible,its a hardware limitation,the CPU in the DB is not strong enough to play divX,youre xbox CPU has much more number crunching power, hence it can do it ... | ||

My System: Technomate 1500CI+, Moteck DG2100 DisEqC Motor, Metronic 85cm Clear Dish, Invacom 0.3db LNB. |
(a) Have Dream re-design the dreambox with a 1Ghz CPu or hardware MPEG2 decoder like the via mini-itx boards... (b) Buy a small 5 port switch for under the TV thus resolving the cable swapping issue. Personally I would go option (b) unless you like a challenge...  Paul | |||
