because the recorder and the playlist only accepts UDP, RTP or HTTP
Live Streaming URL.... not plain http
When you provide a http file, it is assumed it's a HLS stream.

Are you sure VLC is listening on udp 1234 on the localhost ?
that you can connect with http indicates that it doesn't

this is what you need to setup first: make VLC output via udp or rtp
