Using libvlc on android with NDK

Question

I am currently messing around a bit with libvlc on android using the NDK. Well, I understand how to use native C code in an android app. Now I would like to use the libvlc library to make a simple player which would read data from a socket.

Is it possible to use libvlc at that level? The problem I see is when it comes to set a window handler for libvlc to draw the image on.

Has anyone experienced with this that could give me some feedback?

Thank you.
