How to stream from Dreambox to Internet

linron

I don't understand the guide either.. how do I have to setup the port settings.. I installed DreamView on a local PC and it fished up the stream of my dreambox fine.. I configured the settings for the server output and started it but how can I pick up the stream over the I-Net now? does Dreamview scales down the stream directly on the dreambox so that I can pick up the down scaled stream from the dreambox or do I have to make a port forwarding to the local pc and pick up the down scaled stream from the local pc. I don't understand why I have to portforward the port 8080 to my dreambox.. Can anyone help me ?

In fact, I am pretty sure that there is a mistake in the guide.
The mistake consists in the port forwarding setting in the router.
In fact, the router should forward port 8080 (or whatever port you decide) to the PC, NOT to the dreambox as indicated in the guide.
The stream in fact goes in full resolution from the Dreambox to the PC over your local LAN, and then the PC re encodes it to a lower resolution so as to be capable of streaming it across the internet.

The system works perfectly over ANY internet connection, as long as you edit the parameters accordingly.
Of course, the lower the resolution the easier it will be to receive it anywhere, but of course also the lower the quality.

@ "Trizio"
thanks, that's what I thougt too. You have to portforward to you local PC like:

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=384,scale=0.75,aco dec=mp3,ab=64,channels=1}:duplicate{dst=display,ds t=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.178.20:1234}}

it works fine :-)

localPC=192.168.178.20
Port:1234

How about if i use a switch with a brand new IP from the NET provider,instead of a router?!Thanx...

hi all
ok try this this

download firefox browser and vlc

when installing vlc change the directory where the file should be installed
to this
C:\vlc\vlc.exe --extraintf=http
copy and paste best.

when installed click on preferences then input the change the server port to
8080 then click save.

next step is to normally install firefox

in the browser address wirte
http:then ur dreambox ip then go
this way works only with your own network,meaning that your dreambox should be connected to the same network your computer connected to.i dont know why, i wish somebody find out a way to connect throught this way from another network. when you click go the browser will ask you for a name and a password
the name is: root
password is: dreambox
now you should be connected to your dream
hit any channel then on the top write you will see vlc
click on it
then it will ask you what program you want to run to start the stream
choose vlc, hit my computer then c: then you open the folder vlc the choose the vlc.exe
now you should be able to watch the channel you already choose.
enjoy and pardon my english

hope it will work for you guys

i wish somebody find out why this metod cant connect you from another network.

it worked for me but only withen my netwrork.
got it from another forum.

good luck

Nice one man, I got it working on my iphone. I might need to change the quality a little but it works.

Only problem is.... Is there any way to change the channel on dreamview remotely?

I can change the channel on my dreambox but it has no bearing on dreamview

thanks
