Im on the cheap these days and looking to do things like watch fox news on my WD Live hub with no cable subscription. I’ve been able to use my laptop which has a HDMI adapter on it to play to my plasma display buts its just a pain in the butt to drag it out each time and also the audio isnt done over HDMi correctly on my dell laptop…
So… Been playing with serviio and I can play MMS streams fine on my live hub but there are not many… the website for fox news I have located uses this RTMP stream:
rtmp://67.228.235.73/stream/foxnews200?id=60422 http://www.liveflash.tv/resources/scripts/eplayer.swf http://www.liveflash.tv/embedplayer/foxnews200/1/580/400
However, the Live hub is not happy with it and says “unable to play selected file”… Which is a darn shame…
Has anyone tried this sort of thing? My thoughts are to convert the RTMP to MMS… but that sounds messy and clunky… Im still researching but I thought Id throw this out there… I was shocked to get no hits on a search for RTMP in this forum… so maybe nobody cares about this…
BTW this is the fox news feed Im using:

There are MANY RTMP feeds out there to take advantage of… this is just one!
