Streaming from Dreambox

Postby djrobbie » 09 Mar 2010 22:04

Hello!

I am currently streaming LIVE TV from my Dreambox and outside to the internet using a HTML page with following coding:

Code: Select all

</head> <body> <span> </span> <span> </span> <object classid="clsid:6bf52a52-394a-11d3-b153-00c04f79faa6" width="368" height="294" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"><param"><param name="name" value="MediaPlayer" /><param name="url" value="mms://WANIP/DNS:1234" /><embed type="application/x-mplayer2" width="192" height="290" src="mms://WANIP/DNS:1234" name="MediaPlayer"></embed></object> </body> </html>
My clients can now easially connect to my homepage and watch it directly from there using the embeded player (Windows Media Player Active X)

For the record I use the following software to do the stream job: Dreambox VLC Streamer 1.2
http://www.google.no/#hl=no&source=hp&q ... 3bd71e7e59

I am using the following settings in my stream:

Output Method: MMSh
Encapsulation: ASF
Video Codec: WM2
Video Bitrate: 2048
Scale: 0,5
Audio Codec: MP3
Audio Bitrate: 128
Audio Channel: 1
Caching: 1200ms

Dreambox VLC Streamer 1.2 lets me also choose from the following Output Settings:

Output methods: HTTP, MMSh, RDP, RTP
Encapsulations: PS, MPG1, ASF, OGG, MP4, MOV, WAV, RAW
Video Codecs: MP1v, MP2v, MP4v, DIV1, DIV2, DIV3, H263, H264, WMV1, WMV2, MJPEG, THEO
Scales: 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.0
Audio Codecs: MPGa, MP2a, A52, VORB, FLAC, SPx, S16I, FL32

What is the best way to stream by selecting from the various Codecs and Encapsulations and also let it function with my homepage HTML active X ?

Is there a better way then my HTML coding to show the video on my homepage? Like flash, Silverlight or something else?
