Hi Sanaa,

The reason you have not got a response on this list is because development 
of VLS has stopped. All development is now done on VLC, which (I'm told) 
can do everything VLS could do - including redirecting multiple streams, 
etc. etc.

I am not a developer of VLC, but I've tried to answer your questions 
anyway:

Since there is a build of VLC for Windows, it should not be at all 
difficult to do this. (With VLC not VLS.)

VLC can do this on Linux I believe. Not sure about Windows if it supports 
BDA. And on Mac OS X it can be a helper and rebroadcast a stream from a 
DVB card if necessary.

No worries.
