Delay has different sources. Transcoding is one of them. others are
related to the caching on the input on server side, on the soutput on
the server, and on the input on the client.

These settings can be set in the preferences or with the command line.

vlc --longhelp --advanced | grep caching 


from command line should give you the list of the settings you are
looking for (these parametters are in milisecond)
