[QUOTE="Valk, post: 411515, member: 18631"] This plugin works alongside the MPortal client, you can't use it to view TV in the mediaportal client (unless there is a plugin for mediaportal to connect to rss / http streams and you set that up). Because at the moment there is no transcoding done the bitrate of the stream will be well past what you will want to transmit over the internet (watching HD TV I do about 250mb in 20 seconds) but if that doesn't put you off then there is no reason you can't use a client like vlc to watch it while travelling, you will just have to setup your firewall to allow connections to the tvServer port StreamTv runs on. If you know someone running the TvServer with streamTv running who allows internet access you can connect and watch live Tv from them (again bandwidth will be a issue). Hopefully if I can figure out this .ts file issue I can move onto adding transcoding support so the bitrate won't be so insane that you can watch live Tv from anywhere. At the moment there is another plugin for streaming low bitrate Tv I think it is (PiMP) [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/community-plugins-294/iphone-interface-mediaportal-ipimp-3-4-1-a-46556/[/url] If you want to watch video while you travel I'd suggest you look at that first, it doesn't allow for high bitrates (unless there has been a update I don't know about, I haven't looked in a while) but should do the trick. I hope that helps clear things up. Valk. [/QUOTE]
