VLC Player Plugin WINDOWLESS mode not working

Postby relaxpor » 22 Aug 2013 04:15

The vlc player plugin with windowless mode attribute will make the player stop working without any message

Here is my code

<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org"
width="100%" height="100%" windowless="true" loop="yes" autoplay="yes"
target="MY TARGET" />

without windowless="true" it work fine...

It has problem with both firefox and chrome browser.

Please kindly advice.

windowless mode is broken in FF x86 plugin between v2.2.1 and v2.2.2 :

environment: win7 x64, any FF x86 (tested with 26, 39 and latest 47), vlc x86 versions 2.2.2 , 2.2.3 and 2.2.4.
test case: when windowless mode is on, two players play video and I close one of them - another one crashes.
to reproduce: run example code from wiki in two DIVs and remove one div once you see the video in both players
(i use RTSP video, but i don't think it is important... i also clear playlist before removing div but that also doesn't influence on the result.)

there is NO such problem in same environment with VLC x86 v2.2.1.
This is a bug of FF plugin only - same code works fine in IE9 x86 and IE11 x64 ( with VLC x86 2.2.1 - 2.2.4 )
