You could put in a VLC feature request for dvb subtitles. And if the streamdev addresses are static, you can add your favorite ones to a playlist (or add them to WorldTV-playlist) so Knots can view them. You would only miss the epg-information.

Just wanted to add my name to the lists of people using this wonderful program. Vlc is as dodgy as hell so it took ukki's help to fix that (did I say thank you 
) but knots itself is rock solid and works amazingly well. I recommmend this to anyone who wants to try streaming from a mac/linux computer.

EDIT: If someone knows how to stream out video from mplayer / mencoder via http (not rdsp or some other 1:1 setup), please tell me!

thanks for this nice app. i'm really impressed. Very good work
However i have a question: is it possible to connect to the knots server from outside my home-lan? I could forward the port on my router but this would open my knots server to everybody who stumbles across this open port, or is there a way to ask for a user & password?
Also is there a init.d script needed to start it on boot automatically?
Thanks & cheers,
mtron

Thanks for the fast & promising response. A lower upstream profile (current N800 profile causes a upstream right below 180 KiB/s ) is not that important for me (fiber connection), but might be handy for the poor dsl owners 
I would be glad if you could make a user/pw system possible Good luck!
cheers, mtron
PS: the init script is not that difficult, i think i might get this myself.
EDIT: while playing around a bit with knots & getting vdr working i have come across the following bug in the logs:
attached is the html of the default streamdev site served at port 3000 (i have reconfigured it to use the external setting as default, might the problem be there?)

ukki, thanks so much for this, your app is amazing.
Now, is there any chance of using my hauppauge sd card for live tv? it's supported by vlc via pvr://
Also, auth would rock, simple user/pass would be enough for me, for sd sources vlc at just 192kb h264 video + 32kb aac audio is decent enough and works on my sad 256kb upstream.

channels.conf (for vdr 1.6.0.2 - Astra 19.2 E some FTA & PayTV) & dvb-astra-channels.conf (szap compatible - Astra 19.2 E some FTA only) attached.
if you need a full scan of a bird, let me know.
hope you can use it. Getting the vdr-streamdev Live-tv to work with knots would be great! I i would prefer to keep using vdr instead of vlc for dvb cause i need a subscription card for our national tv here. This Card works with vdr but i didn't get it to work with vlc.
cheers,
mtron
