Not yet, but we are working on this. However, we do support the RTP
protocol.

Yes, you can, as long as your other client has a network input, and can
read MPEG-TS streams.

VLC exists for Zaurus and iPaq (using Familiar Linux).

We aim at creating a PocketPC port, but it is far from complete.

VLC and VLS have different capabilities.

For more details, please see:

Basically, VLC is able to stream almost everything it can read, making
him polyvalent.

But, if you want to stream several streams, VLS is better for you, as
one instance of VLS can stream as many streams as you want (and your
hardware can support), whereas you would need several VLC instances.
