Setting it all up

As from januari 2011 this page is depricated. It is only valid for the old 1.4.3 version. For the 2.0 version read here.

Now we got all parts, we can set it up.

Server part:
Install VLC according the installation instructions. On a Debian based system you can use apt-get install vlc. It will everything what is needed to run VLC. On a windows system you should be double clicking the file and follow the instructions. Just remember where you installed it or that you are able to find the VLC executable file.

Also you need to install Wowza Media Server. This is a free (personal use) flash (and more) streaming server. Download the software and ask for a free 10 connections license. Unfortunally you cannot use it for iPhone streaming. That is limited in the free version.

Install the XAJAX framework. You can do that by unzipping it in the webroot. Here are the original install instructions. Make sure the base directory is called xajax.
The xajax framework is now included in the Dreambox Restream software package.

Unzip the DreamboxRestream software somewhere in your webroot where you are able to reach with you web client.
After unzipping you have to set some settings in the file Settings.class.php. All settings are documentated in the settings file.

Finally copy the files in the folder wowza to your Wowza media installation. Change the url in the file aliasmap.dreambox.play.txt. This has to be the same value as the variable '$vlcWanIP'. After that, restart your wowza server.
