My vls config file is almost the same as your web config file:

# vls.cfg (VLS configuration file)
# Example of the VideoLAN HOWTO for the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-250 encoding
card

begin "inputs"

  pvr       = "video"

end

begin "groups"
  master        =
"help|browse|start|shutdown|logout|config|program|input|channel|show"
end

begin "users"
  optiva = "3BcKWoiQn0vi6:master"       # password is 'monitor'
end

begin "telnet"
  LocalPort = "9999"
  Domain = "inet4"
  Use = "true"
end

begin "pvr"

  # Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-250 device
  device        = "/dev/video0"

  # Stream type
  type          = "mpeg2-ps"

end

begin "Channels"

  channel1       = "network"

end

begin "channel1"

  # Unicast or multicast IP address
  dsthost = "239.192.100.100"

  # Destination port
  dstport = "1234"

  # If it's a multicast IP address, uncomment the line below
  type = "multicast"

  # If it's a multicast IP address, set the "Time To Live" below
  #ttl     = "12"

end

begin "LaunchOnStartUp"

  command1 = "start video channel1 pvr"

end


Another question, how can I stream with a normal user? I get no
permission to /dev/video0 device, even if I add my user on video group.

Regards,
Mariano.
