Finally, all my video clips are converted with ffmpeg to flash movies. Unfortunately, I have to use the old flv codec because of the patents etc.... But to compensate that the bitrate is a bit higher to get the same quality.
The idea is that I want to stream music video clips. I like to listing to music, and some video clips are awesome... So now I can watch them over and over :). Also at work.
From now it is possible to have your own AJAX LiveCounter. Just add one line to your code and voila!
This is because it takes more than XX seconds to get all the data from your dreambox.
The solution is quite simple: Locate your php.ini file and open it with a text editor. Look for the line max_execution_time. It should say something like 30. Increase that number to 60.
Restart your apache to reload the php settings. Now you have 60 seconds the time to get the information from your dreambox. If this is still to less, just increase the number with 30 seconds each.

Make sure you have php_safe_mode off. This is needed to execute the VLC executable.
You can change that in the php.ini file, or setting it in httpd.conf file as an php option:
php_admin_flag safe_mode Off
