The VLC plugin with Firefox 3 not works well if it get a multicast stream.
thank you very mush
I intall the new VLC 0.8.6i with full instalation.
We are sending one multicast stream in our lan using VLC. And we capture and show this video
stream into a web browser (VLC web browser) The first time we can see this error message:
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Archivos de programas\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
R6034
But we can see the video in the web.
An applications has made attempt to load the C runtime libray incorrectly.
Please contact the application's suppert team for more information.
The second time we can not see the error message but we can not recive the video stream.
(we always send multicast video stream in olders firefox and allways this goes well)
As well as we try the VLC 0.8.6h and anothers olders with firefox 3 and not goes well to.

The Firefox plugin doesn't work because it's missing a manifest and therefore isn't allowed to load the C runtime library.
Workaround:
Go to the Firefox program directory and create a new file named npvlc.dll.manifest and paste the following into the file:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity
version="1.0.0.1"
processorArchitecture="x86"
name=""
type="win32" />
<file name="">
<typelib
tlbid=""
version="1.0"
helpdir=""/>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity
type="win32"
name="Microsoft.MSXML2"
version=""
processorArchitecture="X86"
publicKeyToken=""
language="*"
/>
</dependentAssembly>
</file>
</assembly>
and save it. Restart Firefox and the problem should disappear.
Solution:
Whoever builds npvlc.dll should embed a manifest!

Thanks for the tip Arkay, however I tried this and no cigar. Using FF 3.0.1 and VLC 0.9.2. I also tried creating the npvlc.dll.manifest file in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC where the npvlc.dll is located... no luck either. Any other ideas?

Rather than copying the .dll's I tried adding C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC to my PATH (since I thought it would be handy anyway), but no change there. In any case my symptoms are different, that thread does not mention the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error.
Does VLC really use a Microsoft Visual C++ library I wonder? I thought it was built entirely from open-source components... which would suggest to me that it's probably something else at fault. Another thread suggested the Windows Media Player plugin may be to blame, so I disabled that, but no change either.

I had the same problem as described in the first post, thought I had broken my vlc plugin installation, installed vlc 0.9.2 again, no luck, later installed ff3.0.1 and vlc completely again, no luck.
Today I tried the latest nightly build with the aforementioned manifest file and see: I still get the error message, but the video works after that.
Keep it up!
/edit: BTW, if you want to try to repro the issue, I was always testing with this:

0.9.7 nightlies should work better. And the manifest issue was also fixed partially but I am not sure if the fix was applied to 0.9.x branch or only to 1.0.0 trunk.

Hello,
Not fixed in vlc-1.0.0-git-20081123-0005-win32.exe (which is where the "latest" link pointed me to) either.
Please be so kind and tell us where the manifest file has to be saved.
Kind regards,

Take the 0.9.7 one
Does not help either:
But, there's one progress: The plugin finally seems to work. I just tested it with an MP3 file. While the 0.9.6 plugin did not play that file at all, the 0.9.7 one presents the error but then plays the file anyway. That's at least better than nothing
Thank you and kind regards,
