Okay...well...Stop there...If you're not a developer you shouldn't be 
compiling anything. The mvpmc project provides no server software which 
runs on the host PC, the host build is just a special build for 
development/debugging of the software that runs on the MediaMVP. Download 
the dongle, and have it served to your MVP with a dongle.bin.config which 
contains a line like the following:

mvpmc --vlc 192.168.0.56 &

(where 192.168.0.56 is the IP address of your server you want to run VLC 
transcoding on)

and on the server run "vlc -I telnet"

That's the specifics of getting the VLC transcoding working, but first you 
should really make sure you have NFS mounting working and that you can 
play something like a MP3 off an NFS share. There are various examples of 
config needed for NFS mounting at http://mvpmc.wikispaces.org/

Cheers,

Simon
