Check your xbmc.log file. There is often an issue with DNS that confuses
XBMC. The backend uses the hostname for the stream, but XBMC expects the ip
address, or something like that. Google around and you will find solutions.
One fix is to use advancedsettings.xml in XBMC to define the host name and
ip address for your backend.
