[vlc] VLC question

Hello,

I have a question & need help on this:

I'm remotely logging onto a linux machine and starting up
 vlc through a terminal in the cmd line [typed "vlc" & the vlc 
interface window pops up] and on the [windows machine] desktop starting 
the local vlc. I have an axis 207mw cam. I can stream live video from 
the cam from the linux machine through vlc & viewing it on the local
 vlc. Now on the remote vlc, I use: http://192.168.1.233/axis-cgi/mjpg/v...esolution=2CIF - network protocol window under Media --> Streaming --> Network tab. This cmd [http://192.168.1.233/axis-cgi/mjpg/v...solution=2CIF] 
 now becomes the source w/http as the type. The destination is UDP 
&  to be Displayed locally w/transcoding enabled w/the profile: 
Video - MPEG-2 + MPGA (TS). All output is now to be a transcoded stream 
delivered via UDP to the machine address 192.168.1.241 [the local 
windows machine that vlc will be running] & the port 1234. So after I
 click "Stream," I'm prompted for the User name & Password & 
once I input that, the cam starts to stream live. On the other vlc [on 
the desktop], I click Media-->Open Network Stream--> and enter the
 Network Protocol : udp://@:1234, & click "play." 

Now the video is 
being streamed from 1 machine to another, but I want to make it so that I
 don't need to bring up vlc on the remote machine, but instead use the 
vlc-generated stream output string [under the "options" button 
"Generated stream output string" ] 
:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=800,scale=1,acodec 
=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:duplicat 
e{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.241:1234 },dst=display} & type that into a vi text editor & executing the file instead, 
so the only thing I'd see is the vlc live stream on the desktop. So I want to customizing the vlc string output to be used on the linux command line, to display the live stream on the windows desktop.  Is 
such a thing possible? Can settings be saved on vlc? 

Much appreciated,

Nuha
