I am trying to do something similar with VLC and that is to just stream out
what is being displayed on my local monitor. (The entire local desktop)

Is this possible?

I am guessing this would depend on what the display is outputting. For
example if it was a game that uses open GL perhaps not? Where as a
PowerPoint presentation yes? How about an mpeg video in full screen?

If your TV card supports directshow, you could use vlc
to view the programs on the PC with the card. 

If you want to stream the TV streams to other PCs, you
can use vlc to stream the content over multicast UDP
and use vlc on the client PCs for playback. Note that
you can use vlc for both the client and server roles.

If I am missing some part about your setup, please send
more details on what exactly you are trying to do.
