2 years ago the server port in your config.ini does not need to be the same, I suggest making it something different, but if you try to open http://192.168.1.29:5202/slingbox in VLC does that not work? the player should be connecting to the machine that is running this code not the slingbox.

2 years ago You can configure any port you like. I just picked 8080 as the default for the server. This is the port VLC connects to. I think it will be confusing to use the same port number as the slingbox but you can do it if you want.
SO yes, VLC connects to the IIP address/port where the server is running not the slingbox.

2 years ago The logs you posted look good. But I don't see any connection request coming in to stream the video. Point VLC to http://192.168.1.29:5201/slingbox

2 years ago Thank you thank you thank you! It works! Very happy. You are all amazing,
Hello, Firstly, wow, I am so grateful to you for your ingenuity in creating this. I've been using Slingboxes for nearly 20 years and I cannot imagine life without them, I've been trying to get this working but the VLC player just has a yellow box flashing backwards and forwards then throws an error message. I guess I've not configured the config.ini correctly. I'm a bit confused about the ports for the server and the slingbox. Should they be the same?
