Hi, I am trying to embed VLC on a SBC using linux, does anyone did or know anything similar was tried/done? Any pointer is appreciated.

Also, any particular SBC (barnd) is good for small application like VLC? I am targetting US 200-300. Thanks!

I have done this, but found the memory and CPU footprint of a standard VLC build to be excessive (although this may too have been related to other constraints on how VLC had to be integrated into the build). The eventual solution involved (in part) replacing VLC with mplayer within the embedded build.
