streaming your dreambox through xbmc
this will work on any enigma e1 or e2 image but unfortunately not neutrino
before you start medling maybe an idea to back up your dreambox bouquets you know the phrase back up before you fack up.
what i did first being old school i used the remote to add a new bouquet and put in the channels that i view the most ie sport films progs etc from the various bouquets and call this something you will easily find you do not have to do this but you will see later where it may come in handy.
ok make sure youre dreambox is conected to the net and talking to your network and the same for your pc also get your dreambox ip number if you do not know it check in network settings also make sure dhcp is deactivated so your box ip stays the same
OK HERE GOES
fire up xbmc go to videos and select files open section on add files and you will see a menu called add video sorce
select the browse option and a sub menu will appear scroll to the bottom and select ADD NETWORK LOCATION.
another sub menu will appear
select PROTOCOL and use the up down arrows until u get TUXBOX CLIENT
SERVER ADDRESS THIS IS YOUR DREAMBOX IP NUMBER
PORT IS DEFAULT TO 80 WHICH IS FINE UNLESS YOU HAVE CHANGED IT
USER NAME AND ROOT ARE THE SAME AS WHAT YOU LOG INTO DREAMBOX WITH DOING FTP ETC
YOU WILL THEN BE ASKED TO CONNECT AND IF SUCCESFULL YOU WILL SEE THE TUXBOX WITH BOXIP IN THE SUBMENU
YOU THEN PRESS THIS AND YOU WILL SEE A LIST OF YOUR BOUQUETS THATS WHERE THE ONE YOU CREATED EARLIER WILL COME IN HANDY AS YOU SELECT THIS AND YOU WILL SEE A LIST OF CHANNELS YOU CAN THEN EDIT THIS TO DREAMBOX OR WHAT EVER LATER IN THE VIDEO LIST IF YOU DID NOT MAKE A FILE IN BOUQUET THEN YOU CAN JUST SELECT WHAT AOR ALL YOU WANT AND LEAVE NAMED ACCORDINGLY .
RESTART XBMC GO TO VIDEOS AND YOU SHOULD SEE THE BOUQUET LISTS FROM EARLIER SELECT ONE THEN A CHANNEL THEN YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO VIEW
WORKED FOR ME SO HOPEFULLY FOR YOU THEY MAY BE AN EASIER WAY BUT THIS IS WHAT I DID AND GOT IT TO GO
SORRY FOR CAPS I HAVE A STICKY BUTTON AND CAN NOT TURN OFF AT THE MOMENT
ANY PROBS I WILL TRY AND HELP
