Just swopped motor control over to the Edision and have proved that using the Bubble app. to change Satellites actually works!

This means that not only can we change Satellite in the lounge direct from the Edision, but I can remotely control the motor from my play room, where the second feed from the LNB now goes.

Bonzer!

Actually, I went straight into VLC and got working from there, will delete Bubble later and see if it still works ok in VLC. The progs maybe talking to each other though...


I tried that, but seem to need to enter the full Box URL each time.

Will give it another go.

Yep. That works!

Like you, not sure if it's being helped by Bubble or not.

Will find out.

Reinstalled Bubble for occasional use, as VLC on its own doesn't cope too well with HD.


Edit: No, I was wrong ..... seems ok!

Great stuff!

I will have to try VLC on the PC and see if that works...

Have you succeeded?

I tried, using Windows and Linux Mint but no joy.

The Android App is much easier.

No luck. It sees the Edison, but won't populate the channels. The IPad is the same. Android is the only one that works for me.

Using the Streaming in anger right now.

Got Channel 4 HD on my Android Tablet, for the Formula One Free Practice, and am carrying it with me around the house as I get on with my Friday domestic engineering chores.

Lag to the actual TV is less than half a second and I've had zero glitches or freezing :Y

So, having run out of Ethernet Ports due to the acquisition of a new Smart TV, I switched the Primo from Ethernet to Wi-Fi and can confirm it still happily streams HD via DLNA to VLC :Y
