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