Mozilla Plugin Playlist undefined

I am trying to create an embedded video player on a webpage. What happens sometimes is that my playlist is undefined and causes the video player to crash.

I am using Firefox 7 beta and VLC version 1.1.11. Here are two examples of the code I am writing:

Example 1:

Code: Select all

<html>
  <head>
    <title>I JUST WANT TO REDUCE CACHING!!!</title>
    <script>
        function start() {
            // start video player
            var vlc = document.getElementById('video1');
            //vlc.playlist.items.clear();
            var options = new Array(":rtsp-caching=100");
            var id = vlc.playlist.add("file:///D:/Profiles/p63151/Desktop/movie4.mpg", "fancy name", null);
            vlc.playlist.playItem(id);
        }
        function stop() {
            // stop playing file
            var vlc = document.getElementById('video1');
            vlc.playlist.stop();
        }
    </script>
  </head>
  <body onload="start()">
    <h1>VLC Plugin - Attempt to add in file caching to 100 ms...</h1>
    <embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" version="VideoLAN.VLCPlugin.2"
           name="video1" id="video1"
           autoplay="yes" loop="no" width="352" height="240"
           target="file:///D:/Profiles/p63151/Desktop/movie4.mpg" />
    <br />
    <a href="javascript:start();">Play Video 1</a>
    <a href="javascript:stop();">Stop Video 1</a>
  </body>
</html>

Example 2:

Code: Select all

<html>
  <head><title>page</title></head>
  <body>
  <script>
      function StartVideo(id) {
          // do stuff
          var options = new Array(":rtsp-caching=150");
          var baseUrl = "rtsp://192.168.113.15/video?";
          var vlcControl = document.getElementById("video" + id);
          if (vlcControl.playlist != null) {
              console.debug(vlcControl.playlist);
          } else {
              console.debug("playlist is undefined...");
          }
          var plId = vlcControl.playlist.add("file:///movie4.mpg", "fancy-name", options);
          vlcControl.playlist.playItem(plId);
      }

      $(function () {
          // do stuff
          StartVideo(0);
      });
  </script>
  <div id="tabs" class="ui-tabs ui-widget ui-widget-content ui-corner-all">
    <ul id="list" class="ui-tabs-nav ui-helper-reset ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget-header ui-corner-all ui-sortable">
      <li class="ui-state-default ui-corner-top ui-tabs-selected ui-state-active"><a href="#video-tab-0">Source 1</a></li>
      <li class="ui-state-default ui-corner-top"><a href="#video-tab-1">Source 2</a></li>
    </ul>
    <div id="video-tab-0" class="ui-tabs-panel ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom">
      <embed id="video0" width="352" height="288" type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="video0" autoplay="yes" loop="no" target="file:///movie4.mpg">
    </div>
    <div id="video-tab-1" class="ui-tabs-panel ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom ui-tabs-hide">
      <embed id="video1" width="352" height="288" type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="video1" autoplay="yes" loop="no" target="file:///movie4.mpg">
    </div>
  </div>
  </body>
</html>

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Are there any other people out there having similar problems or am I doing something completely wrong?

Thanks,

Thanks in advance my friend.. I am new to the forum and know very basic HTML..

Kinldy if you can send me the detailed code I want to play video on my webpage. The videos are lying in the same folder. I want to have play pause and stop control of video and it should show the select play list some where in the page..

I am using the below code to run the single video.. The play list a.xspf is lying the same root folder..

<div align="center">ABC Service
<table>
<tr> <td>

<div id="info">

<input type="button" class="sed1" onclick="else_r();" size='30' value="Play list" /></td>
<td>
<script type="text/javascript">

var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
if(vlc){
document.getElementById("info").innerHTML = "Ready";
} else {
document.getElementById("info").innerHTML = "Not Ready";
}
function mute(){
vlc.audio.toggleMute();
}
function play(){
vlc.playlist.play();
intval = setInterval(uptime, 250);
}
function stop(){
clearInterval(intval);
vlc.playlist.stop();

}
function pause(){
vlc.playlist.togglePause();
}
function c_time(){
return eval(vlc.input.time / 1000);
}
function seek(value){
var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
//alert(value);
vlc.input.time = eval(value*1000)
//return true;
}
function backof(value){
var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
vlc.input.time = vlc.input.time - eval(value*1000);
//alert(vlc.input.state);
//return true;
}

function uptime(){
document.getElementById("nowt").innerHTML = eval(vlc.input.time/1000);
}
function else_r(){
oi = document.getElementById("txtout");
oi.value = '';
oi.value += vlc.versionInfo() +"\n";
oi.value += "VLC position " + vlc.input.position +"\n";
oi.value += "VLC length " + vlc.input.length +"\n";
oi.value += "VLC rate " + vlc.input.rate +"\n";
oi.value += "VLC is Playing " + vlc.playlist.isPlaying +"\n";
}
