Quick Question: Parameter and Value to Show Video Controls

[lindarw]

Hello...

What is the parameter and value to show the start, stop, pause buttons on the embedded video? I am new at this....I do know the javascript but I am using a canned website builder and it will only allows me the paramter name and the value...is there anywhere I can find a complete list of parameters for VLC?

Thanx in advance,

lindarw

Hi,

This post is 12 months old, so I wanted to check if anything has changed in later releases.

I am using VLC plug-in v1.0.2 Goldeneye and this doesn't display any controls either.

Is it possible to show the play / stop / positions controls now?

Thanks

Thanks for the link to the documentation. I've read this and still don't know the answer.
In theory, I could include a load of buttons and link them to event handlers etc...

However, what I am trying to do is to create a page that can use a Windows Media plugin, quicktime or VLC depending on the format of the video. In particular, I want to use this to play Windows Media Files in a web page on a Mac. Currently I use the wmp plugin on a PC including it's built in controls.
(the flip4mac plugin isn't any good as the videos are quite long and it doesn't play until it has converted the whole file).

Both WMP and QuickTime support player transport controls within the play area.

What I really want to do is to turn on VLC's builtin controls within the play window. The last post said this wasn't implemented - I just wanted to check if this has changed e.g. showcontrols="true" when embedding the plugin doesn't do anything.

Then, I just autoplay the videos and monitor the player status as with the other plugins.

Thanks
