OK, I've got audio/video streaming working from my shebeen, using vlc:

This one is on my server:

jcomeau@tektonic:~$ cat ~/src/vlcstream.sh
#!/bin/bash
vlc -vvv udp: --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=0.0.0.0:8080}'

And this is the one from the computer at home:

jcomeau@tektonic:~$ cat /tmp/vlcstream.sh
#!/bin/bash
nice vlc dshow:// :dshow-vdev="ZSMC USB PC Camera (ZS211)" \
:dshow-adev="ESS Maestro" :dshow-size="320x240" \
--sout='#transcode{acodec=mp3,vcodec=mp1v,vb=256,ab=64}'\
':standard{mux=ts,access=udp,dst=tek:1234}'

And on my laptop here I just type:

$ vlc http://tek:8080

I tried to get a screenshot, but PrntScrn shows the VLC window as black; I guess it always catches it during refresh. Oh, well, you'll just have to take my word for it that it works :^)

Actually, I'm not sure of the sound, it's so quiet there in the desert usually anyway... didn't hear a thing...
