porting vlc on an embedded platform

Postby sujas » 21 Apr 2008 11:34

Hello,
Right now I have a compiled, running vlc player on ubuntu 7.10. I need to port it on an embedded platform and only need the audio player capabilities. My questions are:-
According to everyone's experience, is this feasible?
And approximately how much memory and RAM would this code require?
If the requirements are reasonable, then I will start digging into the how's of it. Thx

hi,

It's possible, you can't disable all the modules you don't need before compilation. Then you will have a VLC running with only few 10Mo of RAM.

and even delete the modules/*.so files you don't need for even lower footprint
