Indeed, but setting HFS would solve quite many other issues as well (like accessing images, music, etc. from remote computer). Now, I know there are some frontends to VLC as well, but HFS and streaming VLC are not mutually exclusive. It would be great if users would be able to easily setup HFS sharing on their windows boxes as well (OSX and Linux naturally already have HFS servers). And it would be great to be able to stream from VLC as well.
