use VLC for streaming in XBMC ?
#1
Hi everyone ...

i'm looking for a way to add the streaming function of VLC in XBMC ... anyone there has an idea on how to do it ?

maybe you would ask why ... so i'll explain ...
my ADSL provider has enabled a "multi-viewing" function on my modem, that allows to watch TV via streaming on every computer on the network. all we have to do, is open the url "http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/freeboxtv/playlist.m3u" in VLC to watch the channels ... and so i want my xbox to show theses channels ...

So , any ideas ?

Thx by advance !

Edit : i've forgot to tell that this is not useable in windows Media Player, and VLC is the only software that can play it ...

First try pasting that url into a .strm file. A .strm file is just a text file containing a url. That *may* work.

If that does not, post the contents of the m3u. You should be able to paste the individual channels into a individual .strm files.
