Can you use AirPort Express to stream audio to the stereo from a DVD player?

AirPort Express allows you to stream audio to your stereo from iTunes, and only from iTunes. I would love it if I could get it to stream audio from the DVD player as well, but this is probably a fool's errand. Unless...

Is there a way to make a local source of audio look like an internet radio station? To generate a stream that iTunes can grab onto? If that could happen, then it would be the answer I'm looking for (provided you can maintain the original quality -- or close enough).

If there isn't a solution for this already, I'm kind of hoping someone more tech-y than I will run with the idea.

Nicecast can do it, but the latency of AirTunes will make the audio play much later than the video.

This hint from macosxhints.com explains how, by using VLC to transcode and compensate for the latency.
