Well,  I'm  not sure,  bu  I  think Virtualdub  needs  an  .ifo file  to
transcode a file... Which vlc cannot provide.

However, vlc is  able to make real time transcoding.  You'll need a fast
computer to do this, but it should work.

I'm sorry, but I cannot find any  plac where the syntax is described. As
it  is a  new  feature of  vlc  0.6.0,  we haven't  had  time to  update
documentation yet...
