well, in a way it would be helpful for emotion, but I'd like to see a native vlc emotion backend as well. The pro of having off-process media player is that it often crashes, and we don't like the app to crash as a whole. > 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. well, given the current emotion-vlc implementation, you'd benefit from getting it public ASAP, get some code review and testing and have a better product at the end. I guess your current codebase is better, but errors will always show :-/ > What do you think?
