OK guys here is my problem. I will really appreciate any help. Please excuse me if I am posting in the wrong forum, as it is my first time here.

Basically I have a router and 100mbit line, and my home network consists of 3 PC's , a PS3 and an IPTV BOX.

IPTV BOX is a box I bought , that you turn on and browse through channels, and then it streams them.


Now here is my problem, and the help I need.

The IPTV box is connected to the router, with LAN ETHERNET cable so it has internet access.

Now lets say I am in the box and I make it stream "CNN" channel, so I can watch CNN on the TV.


What I want to know is, is there anyway of finding out what that STREAM URL it is using? the External rtmp/mms address that the box is currently using at that time when I have the channel on?

I suppose from my PC there must be some commands or a software or some way of actually seeing the DATA the router is receiving and its place, just like I suppose a router can register the browser URL's someone told me.


So is there any way of finding out when I have a specific channel switched on in IPTV box , what its URL is?

Any help will be appreciated.

If its not encrypted you will have to open up wireshark and go at it..To find out the IP of your box on your local lan your going to have to access the router and look at the arp cache or IPs that arent usually used on your network to figure that out.
