Network media player to watch live streams from E2 box

[dragoscevero]

Hi,
1. XBMC with the VU+ addon can read EPG, switch channel and stream live-TV. I tried it once. Start was quite slow because EPG must be read but after that it was quite OK.
2. WD Live with a special custom firmware (I never tried)
3. Mediatiomb together with BH tuner server is able to stream live-TV over uPnP/DLNA and so quite a few uPnP-Clients might be able to show live-TV. (I never tried)
4. easiest way a little not so expensive E2 box

ciao

To use the 4th way, what plugin have I to install? I've tried to use partnerbox but I get an error at setup (plugin not disponible (cannot import name EPG_TYPE_GRAPH) on a Gigablue Hd800SE with openPli onboard...

Partnerbox is outdated.
Use the remote channel stream converter to make services on the server box available to the client box.
And mount the client on the server (you pause playback of a file in the evening and continue playback in your bedroom).

I'm searching for a wan/lan connected media player capable to watch recordings but mainly live streams from a multituner Enigma2 box (Gigablue HD Quad) in the same wan/lan (local).
I've watched for some android HDMI dongle, but I'm not sure it's the right solution (not so easy to get streams), is there something better that someone can suggest?

Thanks!

My Med8er 500x Media Player can see and play from the Quad, but I have only tested it for about 5 minutes to see if it works. They are both on a switch box LAN connect by cable to a router.
