Chaps, I managed to play with a Dreambox, which, as you probably know,
is a rather nice linux based satellite decoder. One of the nice
features of this is the ability to use the vlc plugin to watch live tv
on another computer on the lan.
Armed with this information and vlc, I created a rather crude hack of a
bash script to send the output of the Sat card in my pc around the house
with vlc (the script looks at the channels.conf from
~/.mplayer/channels.conf.sat or ~/.mplayer/channels.conf.ter for my
DVB-T usb thing, and sends the appropriate stream to a hostname, also
specified). What I am wondering, is, if the web interface could be
hacked to have an extra option, say "stream". It could then retrieve
the hostname of the client (or ip address) and run this script. (It
would be even better to get it to activate the vlc plugin.. )
I can supply the script if anyone is interested, but I'm rather
embarressed at it, as my knowledge of bash isn't great, and it could be
done so much better by someone that knew what they are doing, probably
in python. I had a play adding streaming v4l2 from my anologue card,
but vlc refuses to believe in sound, so I only get a picture - even when
playing on the local pc (it works in mplayer/freevo etc).
Another thing I had to hack was tv/plugins/mplayer.py to allow two
different dvb cards. (As I have a sat as card0 and a dvb-t as card 1)..
What do you think?
