capturing streams with vlc

[Jude DaShiell]

Also, there are compiled versions of vlc for slackware on alien bob's 
site and I downloaded and got 2.10 installed and played a dvd with it on 
slackware yesterday.  That was using the version for the United States 
missing all the libraries in legal dispute.  For that though you need 
libdvdcss and the videolan.org site has the source code for libdvdcss.
