my wish is:
i have a nokia dbox2 digitalreceiver, and i want to use ist with my xbox. to record movies and to play movies over network.

i can record movies to the xbox in linux with ggrab+sserver. but to load the xbmc is faster then to load linux. to record a movie, i select record on the dbox2 menu. so the xbox bring me a popup on screen: start record. to stop the same. i can make too, timerrecords with the dbox2.
on my dbox2 is linux (neutrino)

im not a programmer...so im asking does it matter what kind of capture card/program you are using to capture the video?

is the stream transferrable over a network? i have a new wireless network that can do around 8mbit /sec ...and using smb at the moment i only use about 300kbytes /sec for vcds/svcds...so thats sweet  :d

i have a winfast2000xp tuner with hncplus great for australians Image is it possible to send this stream to the xbox and play it?

hello!

i own a dbox2 (thats a digital satelite receiver) running under linux (yes - works very great!Wink and i have the possibility to stream from my pc to the receiver vice versa via some little tools on the pc-side.

are there any possibilities to do the same with xbox instead of the pc?

it's not currently possible so moving to the feature suggestion forum. ps! know that if it's not listed as supported then it's not Image

actually there were some guys on the german forums of evo-x.de who started a project going in this direction but unfortunately it never came to a release because of lack of support. i would also love seeing this feature as i could use my xbox for recording.

when you have a dbox2 (dvb) with linux you can stream your
tv-programm direct to pc with a tool called ngrab.
