Just out of interest, why would you want to do this? Initiating from the MVP is the preferred method of doing this, and mvpmc has default presets for handling this transparently. > What should be the correct syntax of the command line to start VLC? > input the file /local/store/movie.avi > output stream to a http port (i.e. http://my-ip:8080) Yes, you should be able to do that. > 2.

The video codec should be mpeg2 with mpg audio. This is the transcode string that mvpmc sends to VLC for DVD quality streaming: output #transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=4192,venc=ffmpeg{keyint=3},scale=1,audio-sync,soverlay,deinterlace,width=720,height=576,canvas-width=720,canvas-height=576,canvas-aspect=4:3,fps=25.0000,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080}} Note that this is for PAL - if you have an NTSC set, switch the height to 480 instead of 576. You should also change fps to 29.9700 instead of 25.0000. This string will start the http listener on 8080. > 3. can I add the following line to the default.m3u > http://my-ip:8080 and will it work just like the internet radio > when I select is. > (of course with video) Yes, that should work.
