The VideoLAN Forums

So, why is it not in the videolan repository for SuSE?

Very few recent posts in this forum... has the plugin, scripting forum gone somewhere else?... Something going on with the plugin that's new?

I'm trying to put the VLC plugin in a div in Windows and Linux. It works on Linux in Firefox. In Windows, when I set autoPlay to true it launches multiple windows, the titles say: Direct 3D output YUV SDL output YUV overlay DirectX output VLC Colour AsCii Art Can someone tell me what the heck is goi...

Turns out that you have to use -rc:oldrc to get the command line... how is it that was so hard to find??

I'm trying to use the remote control interface and am a bit confused. I started vlc by entering vlc -I rc in the terminal and it says type help for commands. I do that and see the help so I add a video (add video.wmv) and it plays. However, at that time I can't use the other commands listed in help....

I copied the code out of http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:WebPlugin to register vlc events to help me figure out why vlc is not running in IE. Two events fire, but the event is null as is windows.event. How to I get the information on what event fired? // event callback function for testing fu...

That was a stupid question. The debugger is showing undefined because vlc.playlist.play() doesn't return a value. I've been working to try and get this working so long without any luck, I was grasping at straws. I'm trying to create vlc in the onload event so I can calculate the best width/height. I...

I'm trying to use VLC in a web page and it's working on FF/Linux but not IE/Windows. I'm using 1.1.7 and have Javascript access to the VLC object. In the script debugger I can get information on the VLC object (MRL, playlist.isPlaying, playlist.itemCount, input.length,position,rate,etc. but when I a...

Still can't get the player to resize. I'm using 1.1.7 now in openSUSE 11.3. As 612wharfavenue suggested, I'm putting: document.getElementById('VLC').style.width ="1360px"; document.getElementById('VLC').style.height ="1023px"; alert(document.getElementById('VLC').style.width + ' ...

Solved. I took src= out and added "file:" with target="file:/opt/CADE/OnDemand/CADE 101_188_3.wmv" and also upgraded to 1.1.6. Now it plays but won't resize.

Just installed 1.1.6 and no luck. Still doesn't resize. Any other workarounds to get this to change size?

I changed the ID's in the object and embed and am using document.getElementById('VLC').style for width and height in Firefox on openSUSE but it doesn't seem to make any difference. The video size does not change. I'm needing to do this in Javascript because the user can resize the video to interact ...

Ok, I found that there was a bug reported on resizing in Linux (http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/3808) 7 months ago. I'm having the problem on both Linux and Windows. Can anyone provide an update on the status of the bug? I can't see whether it's been fixed yet or not.

I'm using 1.1.5 in a web page and trying to resize the video but it's not changing. I've tried document.getElementById('VLC').width = 640 document.getElementById('VLC').height = 480 and document.getElementById('VLC').style.width = 640 document.getElementById('VLC').style.height = 480 but the size do...

I'm new to Linux and am trying to get a local file to play in a web page using Firefox and openSUSE 11.3. I think I've installed the Mozilla plug-in correctly (YAST thinks so) and I'm using 1.1.5. The video plays when using the VLC Player but not in the web page, only a black screen. Here's the code...

Well, the actual page is not accessible from the internet. It's an Windows web server, IIS 7, on my internal server. Here is the web page code if that helps. <object id="VLC" classid="clsid:9BE31822-FDAD-461B-AD51-BE1D1C159921" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" vers...

I have VLC embedded in a web page and when I give it a UNC file name, it won't play. I've tried \\server\d\myfile.wmv and file://\\server\d\myfile.wmv, neither work. These play from the VLC GUI but not when it's embedded... how can I make this work? I've tried this in 1.0.5 and 1.1.5.

Does anyone know how to reset VLC in rc mode after a connection is broken? Am I in the right forum for remote (rc) questions?

I've been working with the remote control access to VLC and found an interesting situation. If I connect and do whatever, then stop my controlling program (close the IP connection to VLC) without sending logoff, VLC goes into a state that takes about 50% of my processor resources and I can no longer...

I'm controlling VLC through the rc interface and need to: (1) Know if the video is in full screen mode or (2) Be able to specify to be in full or not. All I can get to work is toggling full screen by using the fullscreen command. To see the fullscreen status, I tried status, stats, info, description...

Is there any way to change the video size (or x,y position) when controlling VLC using sockets? If I'm not mistaken, there are ways to do this at the command line --width --height --video-x --videx-y... was hoping to find a way to do this sending a command through the socket. I have an application t...

Has anyone got a definitive answer on the problem with 1.1.4? I just installed that version and all of a sudden my VB6 programs are not working. I found this thread and assume there is something very different with 1.1.4. When I open VB6 I get the following error in the log: Line 24: Class AXVLCCtl....

Not quite the answer I wanted to hear, but very much appreciated. ;-) If someone like yourself is in the dark, then I don't feel near as bad. I just don't get why the silence from the libvlcnet authors. I've offered help, donations... don't hear a thing. Anyway, thanks to much for the reply... reall...

I'm begging for any information on the libvlcnet project... or any other project that is looking at a C# wrapper. I would really, really like to use VLC in my project. I've posted a number of questions in various threads on this forum and no one seems to know anything. I found the project on sourcef...

Humm... I'm able to build the simple player now but when I hit the Initialize() statement it just stops. :-( What I'm doing on Windows may not help you much. I'm not using VLC there, although I'd like to. But anyway, here's what I'm doing for what it's worth... On my Windows app (and someday Linux) ...
