[QUOTE="compufunk, post: 651937, member: 288741"] If you carry on through the steps, you'll see that the port number you choose will then be used to broadcast the stream from your PC to the web. (You dont need to worry about ports on the Dreambox to PC side of things.). You can use any port number you like. Just chose a high number to avoid conflicts with any other services that might be running on your PC. If you choose a 5 digit number, you should have no problems. During the process of setting up VLC, you'll be telling it to use the port number you choose earlier for broadcasting the stream. See step #11. VLC has changed since the tutorial was written, so some of the menus and windows will be a little different. The principal remains the same. What is your top upload speed on your broadband connection? If not very quick, you are only waisting your time with this. The picture quality will be very poor without a quick upload connection.
