Is it possible to create a streaming video file?

Question

VLC

VLC can stream the desktop to a file. It works like this: I start streaming, wait a minute, open the file and see a recording of what I did a minute ago. Is it possible to configure VLC to work like this: I start streaming, wait a minute, open the file and see a recording of what is happening on the screen right now. That is, I need real-time streaming to a file, possibly with buffering in the player that opens the file. If it's possible to achieve this behavior with any other software, that will work too.
