Yes it can be used. Some users have reported it to work on a Zaurus, but 
I'd like to have more feedback on it.

Could you try this ipkg for Zaurus? It lacks a user interface, but can 
be controlled from the commandline.

http://www.videolan.org/pub/vlc/ipkg-feed/armv4l/v0.5.3/zaurus/zaurus*.ipk

Also install 
http://www.videolan.org/pub/vlc/ipkg-feed/armv4l/v0.5.3/libffmpeg_0.4.6_20030304_arm.ipk

it is needed by the zaurus-* packages.

Thanks for your help.

Well it already works ;-) Now we have to make it only better in support 
of file formats, GUI, etc.
