VLC web plugin not working on OS X Yosemite

Postby Pimpam » 03 Jan 2015 12:33

Hi,

I use a MacBook Pro Retina 13" with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
VLC does work to read different hard files video, but VLC web plugin does work on the web (live stream).
I tried to install different build version from earlier time through the link http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/mac ... l/?C=M;O=D, same problem.
With both web browsers Safari and Mozilla it does not work.
I wanted to open Safari in 32 Bits mode and try it but it is not possible to activate this mode on version 8.0.2.

Any suggestions ?
Thanks for help !

There is something wrong with the nightly builds and VLC 2.2 is still not out, so there is no public release.

However, you can use my semi-private beta version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/c0zubsrnmiklk ... 4.dmg?dl=0

Thank you Felix Paul Kuehne, it works very well, great job, but after sometime I have a message error : "Echec of module" (apparently this message comes from the extension ClickToPlugin, when I disable it, it works).

It doesn't seem to work on Safari 5.1 on OS X 10.6.8

Logs would be nice to help debugging it.

VLC web plugin not working on OS X Yosemite

Postby Aurelien16 » 29 Jan 2015 11:36

Hi guys,

I'm on Mac OSX Yosemite. I installed VLC 3x from nighties and Felix's private VLC Webplugin. Now, the Plugin appears in Firefox Plugins list (v. 35) but the plugin doesn't run when I click on a video link, like it does on a PC. Firefox just tries to open the video itself and doesn't succeed. Tried with multiple containers (mkv, avi...) and with VLC 2.1.2 and 2.2.0 too and same issue.

Thanks for your help ;)
