 Have you tested this yourself?  It should be VLC_CONF_OPT...

 This should be BR2_PACKAGE_VLC_AVCODEC.

 And here you should add --disable-postproc --disable-swscale

 This should be en/disable-v4l2 (without the lib).

 Also, during the config, I see quite a few lines like this:
configure: WARNING: Library jack needed for jack was not found

 This isn't really a problem at the moment for libraries that are not
included in buildroot, like jack (and I guess none of the others are
included).  But if any of these are ever included in buildroot, they
will make the build of vlc unpredictable - if jack is built first, vlc
will be built with jack support, but if vlc is built first it will be
without jack support.

 So ideally, everything which isn't supported should be --disable'd.

 Arnout
