The tuner sttings in my vls.cfg set the video at 320x240 - 500 kbps, and 
audio at  160000 - 64kbps. I could try lowwering the video bitrate even 
more, to see if I can get a multicast stream onto the LAN.
Does lowering the video bitrate make VLS lower the capture frame rate, 
or lower the frame quality, or both? Just curious.
