[streaming] stream information in playlist

when I launch the VLC GUI, and configure it such that it presents me 
with these MRLs, I do not get the desired behavior from my client:

pvr:// :pvr-device="/dev/video1" :pvr-radio-device="/dev/radio0" 
:pvr-norm=0 :pvr-frequency=-1 :pvr-bitrate=-1
sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=229.82.201.4:1234,sap,group="CSU_MIPTV",name="Channel 
One"}}

this generates an SAP announcement in the playlist of the client, 
whereas when I double click on "Channel One" in the playlist under the 
CSU_MIPTV group, the stream is not launched, and I see no video.

nor, when I launch VLC this way:

vlc -vvv pvr:/dev/video1 :pvr-radio-device="/dev/radio0" :pvr-norm=0 
:pvr-frequency=-1 :pvr-bitrate=-1 --sout 
'#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=229.82.201.4:1234,sap,group="CSU_MIPTV",name="Channel 
One"}}'

the playlist SAP announcement appears, but does not launch video when 
double clicked!

I notice that in both cases, if I right click on the SAP announcement in 
the playlist, the Stream Information URI is listed as:

udp://229.82.201.4@229.82.201.4:1234

if I am to choose the Open Network option from the menu, and choose 
UDP/multicast 229.82.201.4 port 1234, the video stream is launched.  in 
the playlist, a new item appears: @229.82.201.4.  the Stream Information 
for this playlist item is udp://@229.82.201.4

my goal is to launch this stream from the CLI, so that when the playlist 
entry appears, it can be double-clicked, and the stream is launched.  
can anyone suggest any changes to the command line I've tried, above?
