I'm using VLC 1.0.5 with ActiveX and Mozilla Plugin on Windows and Gentoo Linux. On all Systems i register the events listed on http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation: ... oot_object with addEventListener()-Method. But the events get not fired.
Here's the code i use:

</html>I tried with IE 6,7,8 on Windows XP with VLC ActiveX control,
with Firefox 3.5.5 on Windows XP with Mozilla Plugin and with Firefox 3.6.3 on Gentoo Linux.
It doesn't work on one of the Browsers.
I took a look into the vlc-plugin source code to find if the event-functions are implemented but i seems that it is not implemented yet.
Am I using the wrong VLC version or why isn't the event-handling working?
Regards.
