Patching tuxbox:

1'st you need cvs checkouted archive of tuxbox, can be downloaded here: tuxbox-cvs-checkouted.tar.gz
After installing all dependent packages you can patch tuxbox by various patches:

Known problems with dvbshout:

  • Only 12 stations max allowed. And this is not the fault of CPU, because cpu used up to 12% max. (maybe demux fault?).

Known problems with mumudvb:

  • autoconf=2 - is not working because iconv not founded in GLIBC
  • CPU allows to send only 3 channels and 1 radio station, if more - dvb buffer will overruned.

Other stuff:

  • Icecast server, that optimized to work on dreambox, only mpeg streams allowed (no ogg format).
