After almost one year there is a new Dreambox Restream update. It took so long because of the fact that I moved to a new home. And that I was not allowed to have a dish on my outside wall. :(

After 6 months I installed the cable tuner and start developing again and here is the result. And thanks for the many e-mails. It really helped me to get it going again.

There are some bugfixes and some new features. If you are missing some features or you having problems, don't hesitate so send an e-mail...

Dreambox ReStream 1.4.1 - Bugfix version

Submitted by theyosh on Sun, 07/06/2008 - 17:10

Just after release of version 1.4 I and others noticed some bugs. These should be fixed now.

A problem was that the XAJAX framework debugging was running. And that can be quit annoying.
A transcoding problem, which made it impossible to stream. Except H.264. Which is not correct of course.

And a new feature is that the Wowza server can now be another server than the webserver.

So get the latest version here now.

New version of Dreambox ReStream 1.4

Submitted by theyosh on Tue, 06/24/2008 - 21:48

As of today there is a new version of Dreambox ReStream. It is version 1.4. Version 1.3 has never been released if you wonder....

This version supports now Flash streaming in H.264 video and MP4A audio. All you need a working Wowza Media Server. And the great thing is that it is FREE! For 10 concurrent users. So that should do. It can be installed on Windows and Linux.
For now it is not possible to have the Wowza server on a different server than VLC and the webserver.
