VLC can do everything VLS can do?

[Guest]

Serving multiple files?
handing clients across a range of IPs or open from any IP?


I've been banging my head against a wall with VLS I need to stream 3/4 MPEGs but VLC only seems to offer one. Is this right?

You can stream multiple files using VLM (read chapter 05 in the VLC streaming howto or have a look at the new http interface in 0.8.5).

can VLC install without gnome or KDE, i mean i want to install it as a server, without graphical interface, because graphical interface will use a lot of RAM.

[dionoea]

Sure. Run stuff like vlc -I dummy or vlc -I rc or vlc -I telnet or vlc -I http and you won't have a graphical interface.

thanks, is it possible to install without KDE using rpm package. I mean each time when i install a package it will say that dependency QT4..... blah blah blah stuff.

[dionoea]

I doubt it. Most packages depend on wxWidgets which itself depends on GTK (i don't know why you rpm is building Qt ... must be an old version of VLC)

[tansengkai]

qt is just an example, thanks
