Client side, yes. Server side, the box that providers the fallback tuner has to be able to transcode to make it work over weak internet connections.

Any guides on how to do or an deeper elaboration?

Ok, so this worked. I tested it, and I can record one channel and watch another (not greyed out channel). So the bottleneck is Kodi.. Hmmm... Sad.. The "fallback tuner config", is it possible on DM 800 HD SE ? Sounds very smart that you can watch TV in locations where the internet connection is relatively weak.

 

I'll give it a shot when I come home from work today. Yes, the two FTA are on the same transponder. Please explain how I can check that they are in the same quadrant?

 

Remember that no of my channels are ever greyed out, as I'm using Kodi to stream them.

 

They are in the same quadrant if they are on the same transponder.

I don't know about Kodi but use normal OpenWebif streaming and report.

 

Then I can assure that they are in the same quadrant.

 

You need to check on your box itself, god knows what Kodi introduces.  The box will tell you, once a recording is active, what channels are still available for viewing and streaming.

Okay, I will try that. My issue here is that I'm dependent on Kodi, as I'm not allowed to have satelite dish placed outside of my apartment. Therefore my dish is placed at my parents house and the Dreambox is likewise, and my only option to stream where I can use a remote control for my TV, is through Kodi by connecting to my dreambox via internet to their home. (My parents have a separate dish and a separate dreambox for themselves).

But I will try directly on the dreambox on FTA and encrypted channels. I'm pretty much sure that Kodi is the bottleneck in my setup, but are there any other ways of doing it ?   @WanWizard, maybe you will understand why I want to add nother Dreambox or VU+ now

I don't understand how that is possible. There is nothing in OpenPLi that would prevent that.

 

Are you sure the two FTA channels you tried are on the same transponder, in the same quadrant? In other words, if you record the first, can you watch the second on your TV (= it is not greyed out in the channel list)?
