stream tv on fedora 20 with vlc

Postby tonj » 23 Jun 2014 22:20

I'm running fedora 20 with vlc 214 rincewind. I've managed to get vlc working with a firedtv tv tuner and there is a tv channel playing in it. However I cannot stream it. If I click stream and then go to the capture device tab and then click stream I get a box saying:
This wizard will allow you to stream or convert your media for use locally, on your private network, or on the Internet.
You should start by checking that source matches what you want your input to be and then press the "Next" button to continue.
but the source box below that is greyed out, I can't enter anything into it. Below the source box it says Type: File/Directory which i don't want. In Media/ Open Capture Device/ the tv tuner shows as /dev/dvb/adapter0. Is there a way to get this firedtv device streaming in vlc?
