thanks, I tried it but didn't get it work like it works run as root. The command line in the batch file is like the following: sudo -u myuser vlc --ttl 100 -vvv --intf telnet --telnet-password mypswd --daemon --vlm-conf /home/myuser/vlc/public-play.vlc --extraintf logger:http --logfile=/var/log/vlc....

hello what about all this: Running VLC as root is discouraged It is potentially dangerous, and might not even work properly. when running vlc with a script at computer startup? With --daemon switch. And I use to stop vlc process and launch again using the same script and receiving those warnings. Ho...

what about http://wiki.videolan.org/Codec?

is it on Win?
We tried it a little in that blind mode, and as far as I remember with no good results. And we used "load filename".
But in linux it works.

in your mentioned page there is an example:
control channel1 play

it's the same with stop and pause.

you may place your own buttons, like

did she try both ways?
1) udp://[ipaddr]
2) udp://@

The message pane complains the same as for udp://@[ipaddr]?

oh, it's better without @
udp://x.x.x.x

you know, I did just as you wrote ... and the same happened. And then I did as I had done previously - do not type the ip address from which the stream is received > 3) Under advanced options she types in udp://@[my ip address] leave it as it is udp://@ Of course, it does not seem good that it does ...

the message pane on her computer?

Maybe port in use?
Which Operating Systems?[/quote]

btw, did you try
http://people.videolan.org/~dionoea/vlc-plugin-demo/

what I forgot to mention - for me, when there is no stream or it is not started to play, the plugin in Firefox shows a black box with the text "(no video)". So far it is like in your case.

> please tell me what you mean bye make sure there is a stream

I just had some problem with IE that I cannot reproduce now.
Actually it was all quite mysterious, not that I like it.

I recently managed to overcome (I hope) such problem on Windows by 1) unistall Firefox, VLC 2) install Firefox 2.0.0.1 3) install vlc 0.8.6, check plugins in installation. Btw, after that, those two files (npvlc.dll, vlcintf.xpt) are not in the Firefox plugins folder. And make sure that there is a s...

hello

If streaming goes to http, I receive it with vlc player ok. BUT - I put the ip address of the streaming computer in the web browser, and it returns:
404 Resource not found(/)
VideoLAN

I would rather prefer "The page cannot be displayed..."

Could it be easily changed?

btw, in the line C2> $process = system("vlc udp://@:8099 -I dummy --sout udp://PC3:8099 &"); there is no 8080 as in [00000272] main input error: no suitable access module for `udp://@:8080' but we may guess that it is the input stream. Which port then you use? Maybe it is already in us...

Now I have found an example I got the idea, and it seems it works. In a JScript function called on pressing the button, put the code: var options = new Array(); options.push(":http-caching=10000"); document.vlc.addTarget("<?php echo "$srvr$atdal$fi"; ?>", options, 4+8, ...

thank you, but... 1) the server is launched to stream without stream names. In the web page <param name="MRL" value="http://x.x.x.x:2017 :http-caching=10000" /> I get the picture and no difference whether this value "10000" is provided or not. That is, it seems to be ig...

no, it didn't work...
I tried also when there are no stream names, and tried without "0,100,200,210".

I have MRL value in the form "http://x.x.x.x/stream1", where stream1 is the stream name. Should I add "/0,100,200,210 :http-caching=1200"? What are "0,100,200,210"?

and which is the best?

For VLC application the http input caching value is set in Setting > Preferences > Input/Codecs > Access modules > HTTP(S), Advanced options. How to set this value for clients viewing webpage containing a vlc plugin? VideoLAN wiki ActiveX page provides properties and methods that may be used. Could ...

how do you launch the player - with gui interface?
can you play (and watch) a dvd locally?
