Thanks for the answer!<br><br>Well, can you tell something about the performance of VLC on 770?? I did some tests with the Familiar Linux version of VLC on an iPAQ 3900 series (I do not remember the exact version right now...). The basic test was to reproduce a video, stored in the device itself, and the performance was terrible. The video was not displayed continuosly. There were delays of 3 to 5 seconds for updating the image. I did not tried to playback network streams. If playback of local files performed so poorly, i believe that reproducing network streams will not be better...
<br><br>Well, the question is: should I spend some more time trying to compile VLC for 770 or do I will have also problems with performance??<br><br>Loreno<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 6/11/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">

I have been successful at cross compiling VLC for the N770. Though<br>its not for the faint of heart. Shortly I will post some instructions<br>on how to do this, or maybe I will redo it for Maemo 2.0... . There<br>is someone that has some instructions for cross compiling VLC
0.7 I<br>believe here:<br><br><a href="http://n770galaxy.blogspot.com/">http://n770galaxy.blogspot.com/</a><br><br>Then you can easily take the plung into 0.8.4a ;-)<br><br>As well if you search the mailing lists people have had success with
<br>mplayer using the Zaurus packages.<br><br>You can even stream to mplayer using something like this.<br>Assuming you have VLC streaming some video file on another machine to<br>the location <a href="http://192.168.66.199:8001/blah.avi">
http://192.168.66.199:8001/blah.avi</a><br><br>/var/lib/install/usr/bin/wget <a href="http://192.168.66.199:8001/blah.avi">http://192.168.66.199:8001/blah.avi</a> -O -<br>| mplayer -cache 8192 -<br><br><br><br>Sorry I could elaborate further on any of these since I am getting
<br>ready for a presentation to a local LUG that I attend. The<br>presentation will be on the 770 of course... ;-)<br><br><br>On 6/11/06, Loreno Oliveira <<a href="mailto:lorenooliveira@gmail.com">lorenooliveira@gmail.com
