Okay, I looked through the newer docs (the one I had on my Hd was
old :-)

I found the VLM telnet interface.

I tried to do as it says.

vlc --ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --telnet-password videolan
--rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554

telnet in, and then typed

new Test vod enabled
setup Test input my_video.mpg

>show
    media : ( 0 broadcast - 1 vod )
        Test
            type : vod
            enabled : yes
            instances
    schedule

when I try to play it back using vlc:

vlc rtsp://192.168.10.100:5554/Test

I get :
VLC media player 0.8.2 Janus
[00000252] main input error: no suitable access module for
`rtsp://192.168.10.100:5554/Test'
[00000245] main playlist: nothing to play

Something is obviously wrong. The question is What??

When I http to the site, I get a 404, resource not found.

if I do a control Test play, the stream _will_ play. (??)
