For what it's worth, I've also tried it in 2.1.1. I get the same behaviour (buzzing on mute if I use the DirectX audio output, fine on the Wave audio output).

Done a bit more digging on this, and noticed from my debugging that the ActiveX control was using the DirectX audio output, but the VLC app was configured for WaveOut. If I configure the VLC app to use DirectX, it suffers from the same problem. If I add code to the ActiveX control to select WaveOut ...

A bit more information:

It seems to do the same if I set the volume to zero. However, if I set the volume to a small number (say 5) then it appears to have the desired effect. Is there an issue with setting very low volume values (perhaps if it's a big step change)?

Thanks

Hi, I'm trying to use the VLC ActiveX control to play a stream, initially using the test web page that's part of the ActiveX control source. I'm using VLC 2.1.0 with the ActiveX control from 2.0.6 (that's the easiest way of getting a combination that works). I'm finding that when I use the Mute butt...

I'm seeing the same issue here (in v2.1.0). Wondering if there are any plans to address this?

Andy

Oh, ok. 2.1.0 appears to have the same problem that I'm hoping is fixed in 2.0.9 (ActiveX control doesn't work on 32 bit windows).

Andy

Hi,

Is there a Windows Installer build for 2.0.9? I can't seem to find one.

Thanks

Andy

Ok thanks, I'll take a look into it.

Andy

How are they built? If we wanted to build a slightly customised version of the ActiveX control, what tools would we need to do this?

Thanks

Andy

Hi,

We are embedding VLC in IE using ActiveX. Obviously this will not work with 64 bit versions of IE, so we have to use 32 bit.

As 64 bit is more and more common, what is the status of an 'official' 64 bit release of VLC? Will this have ActiveX support?

Thanks

Hi, I'm am currently implementing a SAP server, and using VLC as a SAP receiver to test against. It seems to me that VLC is treating SAP deletion messages (as indicated by the flag in the first byte of the message) as further announcements, and adding another copy of the channel to the list when I'm...

Hi all, I've installed v0.8.6i from the website under Windows, but the version returned from the ActiveX control is 0.8.6h Janus. Is this correct? Also, what is the status of the 0.9.1 version? I see the source is available, but binary downloads appear to point to 0.8.6i. We would like to use the 's...

I'm seeing exactly the same issue. VLC is version 0.8.6i Janus. Microsoft Visual C++ v6.0 with all service packs applied. Running on Windows XP SP3.

Apart from this the control works just fine, but I'd like to get rid of this assertion if at all possible.

Thanks

Andy
