Two Questions About VLM

I have two questions about VLM:
i. Has anyone managed to successfully load more than one 'Video on
Demand' object through a single VLM configuration file?
ii. Is there anyway to use the SAP server to broadcast the availability of
Video on Demand Objects?

OK, so with regard to the above two questions
question 1 - would you mind posting a working example of a VLM
configuration file that will load multiple objects.
I am running VLM as an NT service, if that makes a
difference.
question 2 - Does anyone know if there a 'How to' for using the minisap
server with 'on demand' objects (as opposed to multicast streaming)

hehe
i. A sample vlm file to start two vod streams :
new sample1 vod enabled input "file.avi"
new sample2 vod enabled input "anotherfile.avi"
You then call this config file using : vlc --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554 --vlm-conf <vlm.conf filename> -I telnet
and you have access to the stream at these URLs:
rtsp://<server ip or dns>:5554/sample1
rtsp://<server ip or dns>:5554/sample2
ii. I don't know
