[streaming] vls starts, according to the log.

[Elliot Nesterman]

So, I dumbed the stream way down, here's the cfg section:

# Video For Linux (V4L) configuration
BEGIN "tuner"
# --- Example:
Device        = "/dev/video"     # Video4linux device (default is
/dev/video)
Channel       = "0"              # Channel Source: Webcam often 0
# Frequency     = "7668"           # Frequency (Mhz) * 16
Norm          = "1"              # PAL=0, NTSC=1, SECAM=2
Size          = "QSIF"               # QSIF(160x120)
DeInterlace   = "0"
#Compression   = "mpeg1"         # mpeg1 or mpeg4 [experimental]
Bitrate       = "50"            # Bitrate (approx.) in kbps
Quality       = "31.0"            # 1.0 (good) to 31.0 (bad)
AudioDevice   = "/dev/dsp1"       # Sound device (try /dev/dsp<X>
AudioCompression = "mp2"         # mp2, mp3 or ogg
AudioBitrate  = "4"             # Audio bitrate in kbps
AudioFreq     = "16000"          # 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100,
48000
AudioChannel  = "1"              # 1=mono, 2=stereo
END

And the localhost is set to 127.0.0.1:1234

And now vls seems to start. Here're the startup lines of the log:

2003-08-11 20:39:53 [INFO/Vls]  Telnet server initialised

Now, why can I not get VLC on the same box to see the stream? The VLC
docs are a little unclear about he exact syntax to use when setting up a
stream capture.

Of course, I don't see anything in the log about a v4l module. Maybe
this build still hasn't got it?

Thanks for any hints.
