On the iPaq start vlc in a terminal (eg: through minicom) with arguments 
like this:
vlc -V sdl -I dummy udpstream:172.30.0.10:1234

That assumes you also installed the sdl ipk from the same ftp directory 
you found vlc-0.2.92 ipk in.


To keep things a bit more simple you could try to first launch vlc to 
read from a web server, e.g: vlc -V sdl http://yourwebserver/yourmpg.mpg
