Neondog82 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I was going to send this question to info@hak5.org but I figured I would just post it up here and let the makers determine if they want to use this for their show. How can I set up video stream that will randomly pick files from my hard drives to play? Like set up my own channel to play shows like Hak5, CommandN, and OpenAlpha? I have a D-Link DSM-520 that I use to stream video from my computer to my TV? Would it be easy to publish that stream into some type of IPTV?

moonlit Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Set VLC to pump out a stream, then add all your IPTV shows to a playlist, select shuffle mode (mybe throw in a couple of logo'd clips/idents if you want a 'tv channel' feel, then press play. This should work anyways, I've never tried it though. I have streamed with VLC before, it usually works well, but I've never tried it with random files...

Neondog82 Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 Does VLC stream files from my hard drive, or from MMS streams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooper Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 @neowhitehat: I don't understand what you're trying to do. Do you want to stream a movie into your player as you're downloading it, did you download it and does he want to see it next over the network, or is the idea completely different? @Neondog83: Take a look at icecast. It can stream video just as easily as audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
