Ok nuno.. I got what you are trying to say... 
At present, the videolan server seems to be down.. ( I am in India and
its 2 am here... so it might be 4pm in USA approx...) I'll try to get
the vob files once the server is up... 

After I get those vob files, all I need to do is to add their path to
the vls.cfg file ? Is that correct ? Will the server start to stream
then ? Please elaborate on this topic..

Meanwhile, Do you have any information about what is the format of the
TS files ?  
What I am working on is transmitting Television channels using  videolan
server... I am working to integrate the tv tuner card with the videolan
software so that one can view the tv channels on a network using the
vlc. That is the reason why I need ( if u know ) the format of the TS
files that the vls can stream.. I will need to convert the incoming data
from TV tuner card into that format....

Thanx,,,

Ok, but first i want to say that my english is not very good, so if you
dont 
understand something please tell :)

You can only transmit TS video files, this kind of file is diferent from

normal mpeg files, it is prepared to be broadcasted.

If you dont have this kind of files you could download some file *.vob
from 
the ftp site of videolan, that are in the streams directory.
Dont try to the mpeg files that are in that directory they aren't TS
files 
they are PS files.

TS=transport stream
PS=program stream

The server is able to convert the vob files on the fly to TS files and 
transmit them.

Do you understand it?

What kind of work are you doing with the vls/vlc ?
