Be careful that the corect syntax is
{mux=ts,access=udp,url=...,name="..."}

With vlc-0.7.2 you have to launch the vlc with the telnet interface
activated (vlc --extraintf telnet). Then you connect to the vlc with "telnet localhost 4212". The default password is admin. 

You enter the command lines in the telnet interface and then you can
connect on the client side with "vlc udp:@239.255.1.1" or with the
playlist if you use the sap interface.
