No Media Browser in LUA interface 2.0.1

[mrvanes]

I just finished compiling 2.0.1 and access the LUA webinterface to find out that the media browser is broken. I'd attach a picture of it, but I don't seem to have the rights to do so, so I'll describe what I see: The Media browser popup is loaded, showing the 'Media Browser' title, including the close button and the 'open', 'enqueue' + 'close' buttons at the bottom. The main part of the dialog is white, so there is no way to select folders or files.

I don't speak LUA, but could the trailing comma after "conf" before the array closing bracket be the problem in common.js?

Code: Select all

var playlist_types = [ "asx", "b4s", "cue", "ifo", "m3u", "m3u8", "pls", "ram", "rar", "sdp", "vlc", "xspf", "zip", "conf", ];

Fixed already in 2.0.2

Same problem here with 2.0.2 Twoflower stable release from ppa.
Using kubuntu precise.

Please can you tell me what was the change to correct this problem?
Can I do it just by editing the html/js files manually?

I run VLC 2.0.1 on an armel port of ubuntu. And there are no repositories for the armel builds which have this problem corrected (no ppa for armel build). So if it can be corrected manually it would be very helpful.

thanks

nevermind

The solution is to just copy the three javascript files from the current working version (2.0.2 ?) from an instalation on another architecture (i386)

specificaly the common.js controlers.js and ui.js in /usr/share/vlc/lua/http/js

this affects the latest precise ubuntu port for armel (maybe armhf too) architecture. ie beagleboard/pandaboard users.
at least until the fix lands in the official repos.

2.0.2 will be out soon.

[mrvanes]

The browser interface is fixed now, but I still miss "pls" as a valid extension. It's the way I start listening internet radio stream (single file1=URL in .pls file).

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

pls is present in the code.

[mrvanes]

Well, with all due respect, .pls might be present in the code, but VLC didn't show my .pls files until I added the extension to the list of audio_types in /usr/share/vlc/lua/http/common.js. I'm speaking about 2.0.2 now.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

2.0.3 is different I think.

[mrvanes]

I've just compiled and installed 2.0.3 and I am unable to select .pls files in the http interface. Only by adding "pls" to the array of audio_types in common.js I can locate my .pls files and queue them. I do see the playlist_types, containing "pls", but they don't seem to have any effect on the http interface, or I'm totally oblivious to how to enqueue playslists in 2.0.3?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

This is probably post 2.0.3 then. did you try 2.0.4-git?

[mrvanes]

No. I'll retry 2.0.4 when it arrives. The inconvience is too small to bother with git if you don't mind. I just wanted to report.
