How do I stream a VLC video through the network without error checking (UDP, so there is no error checking and everything will play in real time in every computer and TV in my house). I have been google searching how to set this up and keep running into the way to do it through command line. I want to know how to do it through the GUI interface. And how do I set up the clients, I have a raspberry pi so I don't have to use a tower, And I would like to know how to set up the client side of it (ideally with omxplayer since that's the player designed for the pi).

I have, There was UDP information there on how to do it through the GUI which was nice but now I have another problem. How do I get VLC to stream a playlist. I want to place a list of video files in the VLC player and have it stream to a client so I don't have to continuously keep going to the server every time a file finishes and to the client every time the file finishes to start the player up again (How do I make the player stay open so I don't have to do that). This has to be through the GUI. It also has to stream all the files in the same connection, I don't want the connection to die and another connection re-established, that would make me go back and start the clients again, it's easier to play all the files in sequences through the same feed without stopping the feed.
