I am using PLi image and I have no problem watching HD cannels over the web interface.

It doesnt handle any sort of buffering very well, it tends to cut you off when it drops signal for a second rather than waiting till it receives another signal, I think making sure you have a decent network connection between box and computer is important.

I've got the same issue with VIX 1.3 image, I've not had my box long so haven't tried another image yet but it can't be a bandwidth issue because it does it on the LAN too on SD and HD.


DC

you connect via LAN or WLAN?

I've found the little wireless dreambox dongles pretty useless for any sort of streaming.

Yeah same issue on the LAN using Cat5e as over the net, just drops out after a few seconds.

And yes your right wireless is pretty rubbish when it comes to streaming video especially HD.

Sounds like there is something wrong then mate, I struggle with HD channels due to me having a wireless N bridge but SD works absolutely fine, even on my DM800 clone which is far more under powered than the VU+ I am able to stream video fine over the web.
