[LINUX] XBMC for Linux on Embedded Devices? - nomad2 - 2010-01-19

I'm not sure if it is right for me to start a new thread, and this question might have already been asked before but... OK, basically I just wanted to ask "I would like to build XBMC for my linux mobile, replacing the actual mediaplayer that is present, what can I/do I need to remove in order to make XBMC a more convenient size for embedded devices?"

Eh...size is the least of your worries. Do we compile on w/e architecture your device is? What can it do in terms of 3d acceleration? Just because we run on linux doesn't mean we run on every device that runs linux.

The system is a Nokia Meamo so I would think that the usual linux 3D acceleration applies.


- althekiller - 2010-01-20

No, it supports GLES and the CPU is ARM. Support for both is in the works but no where near prime time.

Really? I honestly thought that it would just be the same. Are you actually looking to develop for mobile devices ie through the WindowsCE OS?


- althekiller - 2010-01-20

Not wince no. Embedded linux. Less for mobile devices and more for set top box applications.

Can you recommend a mediacenter like XBMC that I could put on my mobile?
