DVB-T is for the moment not a option for me. You only receive 2 channels compared to the more then 30 I've got on cable.

Most cable providers overhere are offereing DVB-C content, with a lot of channels encrypted. It sounds a bit premature now to make the shift for me.

  However I gonna have a look into the vdr server, just being curious...

With vlc it's also possible to stream over the internet, the only limit I've found out was my upload bandwith

  Thnx for the advice

Folks I need some advice,

First I explain what I've got

- a freevo recording server running on CC 4.0 (no gui) works perfect.
This machine is also my home internet server (combining best of both
worlds) On this machine I have vlc installed and I'm alrady capable of
starting a live stream or a recorded stream from my PVR 500 in the CC
box. The client interface I have for the moment is a php webinterface
(mozilla only) which works in linux and windows. It's client independend.

Now I wanna implement live tv stream in a freevo client without TV card.
(Everything streamed from my CC server)

I'v created a fxd file capable of launching vlc on the client box in
stream listening mode, and streamed content gets actualy played.

(I'm using a modified vlc.py I grabbed from freevofreebox1.0.tgz)

Now I need to find a way to start up vlc with the desired parameters on
the server.

rsh comes to my mind to do this from the command line.

Is there any possibility to execute multiple commands from a fxd file?
like starting the stream remotly and then start vlc localy to listen.

Other aproaches?

Geert


Why not get a cheap DVB-T usb dongle with linux support and use
vdr/streamdev-server on it.  If you're used to hacking Freevo it won't
take long to install on the same server.

I use this with Freevo (slightly modified) to record in divx format.

To stream with any client it's:

http://vdrserver:3000/channelnumber

With a quick hack you can even stream over your internet connection when
you're away from home, and the quality is superior to analogue.  A
useable dvb-t card should cost €40 + and many throw in a usable with
lirc remote control too.
