I did try to do it with VLC, but encountered a bug which ate 3MB of RAM on the server per second when the stream was running (!)
Oh strange it works-ish with vlc here (i'm using streamdev from cvs and http/PES) but with latest ffserver (from cvs) it does the memory-eating/leaking you're talking about.
I use ffmpeg to read from streamdev http/PES and transcode to ffserver. As soon as a client connects to ffserver it starts leaking and in less than 2minutes it gets killed by the kernel.
