CPU power required by VLC/VLS?

[gizmomelb]

Hi all,

I'm curious what the minimum hardware requirements for VLS might be please?

Basically what I'm hoping is possible is using a Linksys NSLU2 running VLS so that I can plug in a USB DVB-T tuner and then multicast it through the NSLU2's ethernet port. The NSLU2 has 20-something MB of RAM available and this is it's CPU info:

# cat /proc/cpuinfo
Processor : XScale-IXP425/IXC1100 rev 1 (v5b)
BogoMIPS : 131.48
Features : swp half thumb fastmult edsp

Hardware : Intel IXDP425 Development Platform
Revision : 0000


Is there any hope for this device to be able to do what I want? Many, many thanks in advance for any comments/help.

can no-one please give me an estimate of what CPU power is required to run VLC?

I'm having a tough time with this as well. So far I've found that an AMD 1Ghz laptop cannot can barely display a streamed DVD in windowed mode. Switching to full screen causes problems.
