I am using at the moment VLC for Windows as streamming server and mplayer in the 770 as client.

With the following configurations I've been able to see as much files of video (MPEG, divx, etc), dvd's and live television through a tuning card (Pinnacle Miro PCTV).

In the 770:

The command line (xterminal in the 770) for mplayer is the following one:

mplayer -cache 8192 -x 800 -y 480 http://192.168.1.5:8080

Replace the direction and port “192.168.1.5: 8080” by yours.

In the streamming server side (in my case a PC machine with Windows XP with VLC media Player 0.8.5):

- Video files:

vlc "c:\fichero.mpg" :sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=384,scale=0.5,acod ec=mpga,ab=96,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access =http,mux=asf,dst=:8080}}

Change “c:\fichero.mpg” by current file path to send, “dst=: 8080” by the port to use and try several configurations of 'scale=0.5” to fit quality.

- DVD's:

dvdsimple://D: :sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=384,scale=0.4,acod ec=mpga,ab=96,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access =http,mux=asf,dst=:8080}}

Change “//D: ” by DVD path, “dst=: 8080” by the port to use and try several configurations of 'scale=0.4” to fit quality.
In order to choose differents audio tracks of the DVD adding ': audio-track=x " where x is the track of audio (0-7).

- Live TV:

vlc dshow:// :dshow-vdev="Pinnacle WDM PCTV Video Capture" :dshow-adev="" :dshow-size="352x288" :dshow-caching=200 :dshow-chroma="RV24" :dshow-fps=0.000000 :no-dshow-config :no-dshow-tuner :dshow-tuner-channel=0 :dshow-tuner-country=0 :dshow-tuner-input=0 :dshow-video-input=-1 :dshow-audio-input=-1 :dshow-video-output=-1 :dshow-audio-output=-1 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=384,scale=0.75,aco dec=mpga,ab=96,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{acces s=http,mux=asf,dst=:8080}}


Change the parameters “dst=: 8080” by the port to use and try several configurations of 'scale=0.75” to fit quality.
This configuration is for my card (Pinnacle Miro PCTV), but I suppose that it will work with any card compatible with DirectShow of VLC.

All examples are command line instructions. I've created a ".bat" file (in the PC's VLC directory) for each one to use it.

Good vision.
