Hi

i am new to this , is there by any change a way to stream browser content directly to kodi player?

the reason i am asking i got a valid dstv acount and i want to stream it to kodi from the dst now from a pc browser

Thanks
 
Why don't you just stream straight from dstv.now to the browser?
 
I know you can do this with a chrome cast , but dont have money to buy one :)
 
seriously if you get something decent working with this let us know.
 
Am I missing something? I have not tried it yet but I was hoping to last week already.
Do you not stream DSTV from your browser? If so, why not use the browser instead of sending it to Kodi?
I'm asking because I am looking for the best approach as well as I recently built an htpc for Kodi and to eventually stream from DSTV.

DSTV uses flash, Android doesn't.

DSTV Now doesn't work on some DroidTV boxes and the SS app works on barely any...

I can use Now on my box but when I want to watch the F1 the SS channel it's on often disappears and I need to run a 10m HDMI cable... There has to be a better way.

@ CamiKaze,
So some people have a Rasberry Pi with Kodi on.
The browser streaming does not work on the Rasberry Pi.

EDIT: doesn't work for SS but works great for other things.

Trying VNC but picture is very jerky

I've just noticed some of the SS streams on the website are no longer flash, so they work on Chrome in Android.

DSTV is trashing flash for good, no more hacking their SS channels.
Way better and clearer sport links via Kodi if search properly, 720p looks good.
 
i have managed to successfully stream DSTV now through kodi
simply add the chrome addon - then you wuold add your links.
it will ask if you want it in kiosk mode. you say yes. then you have what looks like the dstv now app on your kodi.
it works perfectly
 
I've been doing this for a while too, for DSTV, Showmax and youtube... Does anyone know how to exit back to kodi without ctrl+w? it's not intuitive for anyone that not me?
