To get started follow the suggestions here:

http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/streaming-howto-en.html

Easiest way to get started is using something like

vlc <file> --sout udp://127.0.0.1:4567

This sends <file> to udp port 4567 on your local machine. With

vlc udp://@:4567

you should be able to receive the stream.

To reduce the bandwidth needed for the stream take a look at chapter 4
of the streaming howto and the use of the transcode option. If you
haven't done already you also should take a look at the stream output
settings in the GUI. This is very helpfull to get started.

Good luck,
Torsten
