vlc with a freebox in an intranet
Posted: 05 Oct 2006 23:18
Hello,
I live in a residence. I have a web server (with Ubuntu) connected to a local network with approximately 100 computer. On the website, I use vlc to refiffuse TV from freebox. I made a PHP script that work as a remote contol (Actually, there are 2 TV, I mean 2 vlc runing on different ports so 2 remotes accessibles by only 2 persons. The others can just regard TV as spectator).
But I have a probleme. Each person who want to watch TV has to download a .m3u file ti connnect to the TV and to open it with vlc. It isn't really handy . And besides a lot of resident are noobs. I could use the mozilla-vlc-plugin but of course they don't all use mozilla.
Can someone help me please?
Please forgive my English Expression. I'm French (Actually it's also a difficulty because some persons are also English speaking in the residence. So it isn't easy to explain them how to use the TV).
