IPTV setup for Dreamlink Android discussion thread

Thanks
I would change the last 6 anyways, may have to one day. Don't want to have the same mac as 300 others trying to connect to the same server. :)

yeah... i think once everything is up and running, you will have to enter in the mac you want to use and if its taken, it should tell you... i would think.. time will tell!!!

Menu button on the remote brings it up at the bottom right.
Third or fourth option down should be media player

Thanks I found the window below...but still having issues...when I go back to start the app I click 2x and it starts up my xbmc...i will exit out and restart the app I then get the menu "455 coming soon" click back and I get black screen timed_program or a blue bar! in portal settings i put the url in portal url internal portal url & checked true that url is internal...not sure if thats right....but trying everyway to get this to work!!! I even updated to the new version of mx player. What am I doing wrong????

The xbmc issue is known, I usually get by without triggering it by hitting the menu key and exiting out that way. Haven't read or tracked down why it happens but you have to remember this is an emulator so some things may not work.

Yes this is true...but if it works on your dreamlink android ...should it also work on mine? Did i set up the portal settings correctly? I get 455 coming soon! Am I close?
 
#48
Yes, it should work on your dreamlink android since it works on mine. Showing 455 means you have it connecting. On that screen just click left to exit and go right to videoclub. The movies are what is available on this test right now

Also, if you get the blue loading bar on a black screen or just the black screen pressing select on your remote will bring you back to the 455 coming soon screen to get out.

let me ask a few hopefully not to dump of a question. i have followed the steps, when you say server name, are you referring to my donation with say rocket, and that server name? also why do we change the mac address and serial number, not following.
 
#51
Yes, rocket server name and info given when the server is setup. Right now it's a test server and free. Put in ::
Code: 
http://1.iptvprivateserver.tv/

Yo have to change the mac and serial because the emu and server wants them. If you don't follow the steps and change mac, it will error out with a stb damaged message. Serial is there to change so might as well change it

I use MXIII 4K, I can load the stb emulator but wont save in to the box also tell me Authentication problem.
Try every think and is not working for me

ok, thanks for the rocket info. so i can use any numbers for mac and serial? still don't get why however, can you provide a example on the mac address to better understand?

I just read the part in my guide that refers to mac, and I clearly stated to use the last 6 from the receiver you are using it on. Mac addresses are like phone numbers, you only want one that belongs to you and confusion happens when many different have the same. Mac address numbers are specific to device- or at least should be.

The first 6 number and letter combination tell who made the device and the last 6 is the device identification. So if you use the last 6 from your device you should be future proof from someone else having the same. If you change the last 2 to ae or 21 or etc there is a good chance later on someone else took the same shortcut.

Serial number may be needed later on- may not. I really don't care if you change it but if it doesn't work and didn't change it- then the ones that didn't change it come back and ask why it doesn't work. So, isn't it better to change that now while you're in the menu looking at the option?

I suggest to follow the directions given, that's why they were given

Authentication problem? Is that when you load, when you play live tv, or when you play vod? Not saving may be an issue with your device and need posted in that device section? May be as simple as moving the program to sd card or moving oters there because it's running out of space?

I changed mine and it works on many different devices, so it's up to you if you follow the guide and change it keeg. If your ip is 192.168.1.104 then change it in the profile settings to summin like 192.168.1.211. just change the last set of numbers to something your network devices aren't using. Adding 20 or 30 will probably work

Bio, i did manage to get about 5 channels discovery and a movie list, so i must have done something right. I found it a little difficult to maneuver on the screen with the remote.
Is there anything else i should see or view that might be interesting?
 
#60
The 5 channels is what is open for now, along with movies offered through vod. This is a testing phase for the server and channels that are open are to test the setup. More channels are expected to pop open but for now it is what it is.

What type of trouble you having with the remote? Mine works fine for everything of mine- except maybe my phone where I am forced to use navigation icons that popup.
