How to watch the tv-stream live on my PC using Tuxvision

With Tuxvision it is possible to view the tv-stream live on your PC using your local network. On your PC you can view or record this live stream.
Why should you do this? If you record it directly to your PC using Tuxvision, the recorded file is directly saved on your PC and you don't have to convert the TS-file to a MPG-file!

Settings on your dreambox.
Go to Setup/Expert Setup/Ngrab Streaming Setup
Fill in your IP address of your PC at SvrIP, e.g. 192.168.0.40
Leave SrvPrt on 4000
Go to detect MAC address en press OK.
Save.

Download Tuxvision and TREX software at the downloadsection.

Install the programm TREX first, to use the video-codec on your PC. Now you install Tuxvision. Start the programm.



At "Destination" on the leftbottom you fill in the directorie of your recordings.

Press "Preview" and a popup tv-scherm will appear. The video and audio-streams are 1644 and 171 kbit/s, depending on the quality of the broadcasting! The recording is saved as "DBOXIICapture.mpg".
