The VideoLAN Forums

My application has a video player component. I am planning to use VLC player for it. The application needs to run on Windows and linux.

Can someone please tell me how much - at what layer - VLC players on windows and linux have in common. Are the APIs same?

Thanks in advance for any answers, suggestions, comments.

They are the same.

There is only one source tree.
The gui is the same between linux and windows thanks to wxWidgets.
