[vlc] Re: VLC for pocket PC / handset

[Danny Brown]

Why not ask on the live555.com <http://live555.com> website how to go about
building the lib for PPC. They may be able to help. As soon as I can I plan
to get back on this myself as I think I need it. Ive got a couple of weeks
of other work I have to do right now. If you do get it working, please post
here. Thanks
