As far I know VideoLAN grabs from the V4L-interface.

That means you need a full-featured DVB-S/C (260,- / 330,- EURO) and can't
use low-budgets (99,- EURO).
You can only stream the ONE channel the DVB is tuned to.
How do you want to get the the complete picture over a network (40 MByte/s)?
You'll have to compress, which means a huge CPU ...

If you create a plugin to VDR, you could directly send as many
streams/programs your machine can handle as feed to FFSERVER which takes
them OnAir.
(My goal is to have 4 low-budgets in a server which would make me possible
to send *ALL* TV/Radio-programs of 4 transponders over the network at the
same time!!!) You just go to FFSERVER's webpage on your server, click a link
and you get the MPEG-stream to your client.

Please, don't use the bad word! Flash means security-holes and compatibility
problems with browsers!
I've learned to keep to generic solutions straightly!
