RE: Change Xbian mac address
Don't have test it,
but according to this post Quote:If you include ssh to the pi, Terminal sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt append this at the end of the line smsc95xx.macaddr=B8:27:EB:59:EB:25 (with your desired Mac) ctrl + x to save Please read rules and do a search before you post! .

RE: Change Xbian mac address
Thanks for trying to help me out but it did not work. I put the "sms95xx......." line after "...splash" in the command line with the desired mac address but it failed to change it. Any other ideas? Thanks!

RE: Change Xbian mac address
Im so sorry, it did change! I just forgot to put ( between the numbers. But I guess my problem is bigger than I thought, the stream works alright but only sound. I have no idea what format the broadcaster is using for the video.
that was supposed to be : not a smiley face lol |

RE: Change Xbian mac address
If I play the stream in omxplayer it does not display an error as it´s playing the stream correctly but only with sound and a black screen.
Is it possible I need to buy an MPEG-2 licence key? |

I have few medias which omxplayer plays audio only, but I get error like "codec not supported" (for instance DIVX3) license is for unlocking acceleration in hardware. but still playable via software decode.

MAC Address!
It has been considered that MAC address cannot be changed. But now it is possible. I have tried many software that claimed that can change the MAC address but all were fake. Finally, I got one, SpeedDemon! Now I can successfully change MAC anytime I want.
You can visit this site and see for yourself that it is possible - Change MAC Address |

RE: Change Xbian mac address
In conclusion to my part of this thread, the smsc95xx.macaddr.... line changed the mac address and buying the MPEG license fixed the stream problem so thanks to all you guys !
