What would it take to write a cross platform video player in  
Revolution. Previous experiments failed to get video playing back  
well on Linux - xAnim is not really actively being developed. All the  
recent stuff is VLC based (Google and Participatory Culture).

The Participatory Culture project is really interesting and a  
fabulous opportunity to show off what Revolution can do - the task is  
to create a cross platform application which aggregates RSS feeds and  
allows you to create full screen TV quality playback.

Looking for a way to do this. Is this on the Rev roadmap for video  
playback (it should be), Any suggestions how we could create such a  
playback client or someone who would now how to create an external to  
create VLC video windows in Rev?
