JSVLC is a shot in the dark attempt to port the open-source media player VLC to Javascript.

The motivation for this is not unlike the motivations for creating the Javascript MESS project: increased portable access to a variety of media - in this case, audio and video, including older formats, DVDs, CD-ROMs, and other files that reside on locations like the Internet Archive, retuning all of these large files into streamable media.

It'll work, or it won't.
