Hi,

We use emotion with vlc here, and since libvlc is GPL we had to
develop our own library (it basically forks a vlc process with shmem
vout, and communicates with it through the command line interface
(with a pipe)... no linking with vlc at all). We also modified the
emotion plugin to use it instead of libvlc.
I know there has been discussions about releasing our lib in the past
(it did not happen because we have a lot of more important stuff on
our minds and it's low priority ^^), but if I bring back the subject
it could happen.
What do you think? (hope the vlc guys wouldn't be too upset though...
well in the end its their fault for releasing a GPL library, meh ^^)

Hugo
