Vad är det du vill streama?
Om du kör Windows så kan du dela ut en mapp som du mountar i boxen med cifs. Sen kan du spela upp flera filmformat (dock inte alla) i den mappen på din box.

1. Skapa en tom mapp på boxen under /media/ som du döper till t.ex. "dreambox".
2. Välj valfri mapp i Windows och dela ut som t.ex. "dreambox".
3. Editera (lägg till ny rad i) /etc/fstab-filen med rätt information (raden nedan):

//192.168.0.2/dreambox /media/dreambox cifs user=Användarnamn,password=Lösenord 0 0

192.168.0.2 = Ändra till IP-adressen till Windowsmaskinen där den utdelade mappen finns.
dreambox (efter IP) = Namnet som den utdelade mappen fick.
dreambox (efter /media/) = Namnet som mappen på boxen fick.
Användarnamn och Lösenord ska vara från Windows-kontot där utdelningen gjordes.

4. Starta om boxen med fjärrkontrollen (reboot/starta om).
5. Välj att den mappen på boxen skall användas som inspelningssökväg i Dreamboxens inställningar.
6. Ta ev. bort alla andra bokmärken.

Tryck på VIDEO/PVR på din fjärrkontroll för att lista och spela upp filerna i den utdelade mappen.

Om du tänker på XviD/DivX så stödjer inte DM800 det.

Du kan dock transcoda om din film i PC:n "on-the-fly" till din box med VLC som du nämner och då använda VLC plugin i DreamBox:en.
Jag vet inte själv hur man gör då jag aldrig haft behovet, men det här är saxat från ett annat forum:

Hi,

Did a bit of digging around trying to get DM800 to play divx and finally got it working, so I'll briefly include what I did for people that might be interested. Not sure if it will work on other boxes or if anyone else wrote up one up. So here it is:

1. Install latest VLC Player - with full instead of standard or custom settings.

2. Upon completion, go to your desktop icon click right button and go to propreties.

In Target field it should say something like this "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" so go to the end of the line and add following text: --intf wxwin --extraintf=http

So the complete line looks like: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --intf wxwin --extraintf=http

3. Run your VLC and minimize it

4. Now go to your box, press GREEN button to get into plug in menu and click on VLC plug in.

5. Creating a server by clicking GREEN buttons, or edit current with YELLOW buttons, and these are the options I had:

Server Name: Wotever
Enter VLC-Server as FQDN or IP-Address: IP-ADDRESS
Server Address: put in ur address 192.168.0.23
HTTP Port: 08080 (Default)
Movie Directory: f:/ (this is on my network drive, yours might be different, e.g. c:,d:, wotever).
DVD Device: didn't worry about
Transcode MPEG/DVD Video: YES
Video Codec: MPEG2
Video Bitrate: 2000 is default, play around with it untill ur happy with the resolution.
Video Resolution: Same deal, adjust untill you like the result

Everything else can stay default, only audio I've change to mp3 and that was it.

6. Once server is set up, press GREEN button to confirm the changes.

7. Click on the server, and you should be in directory specified, choose a movie and play it.
