Richard Kay responded to most of these questions, so I'll just clarify a 
few points...

Yes, exactly. Though the command in dongle.bin.config and the 
dongle.bin.config file itself are both optional, and only required if 
you need custom startup options.

It sounds like you are trying to get VLC to work. I'm not sure if mvpmc 
can access a VLC server using settings from the settings menu, or if a 
command line option is required.

These two lines do not "push" the files to the MVP. They simply starts 
services on your server that permit the MVP to find the boot server and 
allow it to retrieve the boot files.

mvprelay is a service that responds to broadcast packets sent by the MVP 
when it is booting up. The reply packet lets the MVP know the IP address 
of the boot (TFTP) server.

in.tftpd is the TFTP service that the MVP then accesses to "pull" over 
the boot files.

Unless you're actually using OpenWRT, I strongly recommend you follow 
the more general purpose guides on the mvpmc wiki.
