Start VLC on your PC and select File>Open Network Stream Select UDP/RTP Tick box Stream/Save and select settings Tick box HTTP and enter your Dreambox IP 192.168.???.??? Click OK and OK to close both windows On VLC, select Settings>Add Interface>Web Interface Leave VLC running on your PC i open the vlc player and click on media => open network stream i dont get UDP/RTP i get one or the other (but when i put in http, it then asks me for username and passowrd which i put in, but then nothing happens) there is no box to tick and i cant find anything saying settings under any tab, when i push the yellow button for the dreambox i do get the option of vlc frontend, but when i select this i get: no connection to vlc sever available iv been trying to do this for 2 days now with no luck.... its now gone 6 in the morning and iv been up all night.. can someone help please - as i dont want to lose to a computer ,lol thanks |
