I need to display a video stream from AXIS IP camera, which is streaming MJPEG video in HTTP. I have tried working with libvlc, but it has some buffering issues. So please suggest the list of alternatives for the same.
System Config: Ubuntu 11.10 operating system running on ATOM based ATMEL tablet.
Thanks in advance

PS: I read a bit about gstreamer, but not sure if it's an overkill here.
After some research, found the following alternatives (for C++ on Linux platform) to receive/display video from an IP camera:
libvlc - nice framework with good documentation; but has buffering issues
opencv - an overkill for the scenario; but otherwise a very good choice
gstreamer - an excellent framework to work with streams; but poor documentation (but consumes more CPU as compared to libvlc)
As of now, narrowed it to gstreamer and got some code working. Can share it, if someone is interested. Any more suggestions/alternatives are welcome.
