You can have a look at vlm... However, I don't think it allows to start
a stream "every x minutes", only at a specified time. However, adding
this feature shouldn't be to hard I guess. 

An alternative would be to use the cron mecanism of your os, and sending
an instruction to a running session of VLC, using the http or the
rc/telnet interface.
