DreamBox (enigma2-based) to play multicast streams

I have a couple of DM800HDs running Open Dreambox and I want to stream all the media to them through a UDP multicast from VLC (something like this). Those boxes would be un-manned, so I want them to boot into RTP mode and stay that way, just play what is being broadcast by VLC server. Open Dreambox runs an enigma2 player.

I am not sure where to start with this. First off, I need to be able to put them into a mode where they would listen to a milticast stream. I tried vlcf, but it does not seem to offer s开发者_如何学运维uch functionality. Then I need to turn them in such mode on a boot time instead of via GUI.

Can someone help?

I don't have the environment to test it, but from what i've learned online I would recommend trying a M3U file on the harddisk/flash of the dreambox. If you choose that via menu or web remote control, the dreambox will join the multicast.

I guess it is easy to get the dreambox to start on that file, if no other is available.
