Hi, I've been using Dreambox Live with my ET9200 the last 2 weeks and everything was good until I flashed the latest VIX image 2.4 onto the box. Now I am unable to get the picture to stream from the box to iPad and iPhone although it will swipe and change channel on the iPad and I get a list of bouquets with the channel lists and can select one and it will try to change channel but then I always get Connection failed, perhaps all tuners are occupied. I am using the same ports as before and have Open webif setup as :
Open webinterface enables-yes, Http port-00080, Enable http auth-no, XBMC-yes. Also I have port forwarded ports 21,23,80 and 8001 on the router. The tuners arent occupied and have tried disconnecting everything else but no luck. Everything was ok before, am I missing something?? Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.

you need to add a service first then select it as a firewall rule. if you are looking to port foward then use this.

Okay i am stuck and need some help please. i Have
OpenViX3.0.664 kernel 3.3.8 installed on a Vu+ Solo2. I have setup a noip account. enabled OpenWebInterface set the http port to 1980 and the streaming port to 8002, i have installed inadyn and configured it and enabled the transcoding plugin to port 8002 (same as streaming port) everything works fine on my LAN. but when i attempt to stream via WAN it fails in the media player, i can access my epg fine but when i click on the tv to stream it fails, i have tried both media player and vlc player and neither has worked. Also i can download and play recorded programs fine

it says select a lower and a higher port number

so is the port 80 or 8001?

thanks

My problem is exactly the same as yours, everything works as it should on my LAN but for some unknown reason every time I switch to 3G I get an error on both VLC, Daroon and MX Player. Everything else on 3G works as it should - Channel Listings, Box Commands, Sending Messages and watching recorded programs all work perfectly. I even set up and Dyndns account just to see if No-Ip was the cause but no. If anyone has any other suggestions I'd love to try them as I have run out of ideas now.

Regards

Seems like everything is working now, no idea what I did but I get all channels playing at work no problem. My only two other problems are the sound will not come on when viewing channels and if I forget the stop the program in Dreamdroid I can't connect to the box again for at least 10 minutes and I have no idea why that is.

Hi guys,
I can stream to my (XP) PC pretty solidly using VLC from OpenWebIf, but I have an airplay dongle that ideally I would like to onwards push the stream to. For other things, iTunes enables me to push video reliably to my old 2005 plasma with the dongle in it. I am guessing there are other people on here that are streaming to ipads etc.

So I wondered if any readers of this thread have encountered and conquered this issue. I have 3 questions I wonder if anyone could answer.
1. Does anyone know if there are streaming apps compatible with Solo2 Vix 3. image to iOS that support the airplay push function?
2. Or as my dongle has an IP address, is there an option to 'send' from my Vu+ solo2 Vix 3.0 directly to the rendering dongle?
3. Is there a technique to stream from OpenWebIf to iTunes.... I try Open with iTunes.. function and I just get an audio track with great buffering and then like a tape recorded on fastforward play (remember those?)

I've just tested Vu+ player, great but no push. e2 Remote pro seems to support internal or GoodPlayer. dreaMote Lite I cannot 'see' an option to stream or in paid for dreaMote unless it is Custom Stream URL. I download more streaming apps but they don't appear available to selectin e2 remote. any suggestions?

Cheers

Using Dreambox Live, now called Blackbox Live and £2.49 for iPad, does it stream the satellite radio channels? I use the Vu+ iPad app which is just fine for video but I can't get any of the radio channels, which are what I want most when I'm working in my shed.

 

[seame]

Not sure about radio stations as I've never tried to stream them but an alternative is the free tunein app. Has has thousands of stations from all over the globe.

Hi, does anyone know how to port forward on the BT Home Hub? I've got to the relevant settings page but it says I have to choose a program to port forward. It doesn't seem like I can just create a port.
