The VideoLAN Forums

These days the need for processing power in increasing and unless you have a good configuration system you can not play 720p or 1080p movies,

But if VLC was to develop its own OS, Something like http://www.geexbox.org/, that would help a lot of users who have old cpu's and cannot play quality video because of their Operating System using a major portion of the processing power.


The only issue with http://www.geexbox.org/ is that they do not support all the video formats.

this would be alot of work

VLC already supports UBUNTU, Which means it could be possible to integrated with any miniature version of linux.

but it take away from time spending improving the player
