Geert, I too use VLC for streaming, however, I don't do this within freevo, I do it outside of freevo, manually, using the telnet interface to VLC running on the server. my vlc startup script (/etc/init.d/rc.d/vlc) contains: /usr/bin/vlc --intf telnet --cr-average 1000 --vlm-conf /usr/local/

Yes, tought about this one too and I probably will end up doing so with a bash script. Just that it looks a ugly solution. Quoting Dirk Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Geert Decorte wrote:    Is there any possibility to execute multiple commands from a fxd file? like starting the stream

You can watch recorded movies using NFS or CIFS as I sometimes currently do, but AFAIK, you can't watch live TV when you don't have a TV card in the client. Putting the TV card on a server and stream the content is a way to have live TV on any computer in the network, without installin
