Hello
Newbe here!

wrote a small HTML.
it has a div with:
<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" toolbar="false" autoloop="yes" width="1220" height="910"
src="file:///MagicHTML/MagicHTML/Video/MainVideo.wmv"/>
For whatever reason it won't loop!
I tried:
loop="yes"
autoloop="true"
loop="true"
the file is on a local network share and starts perfecly!
OS: XUBUNTU 12.04
Firefox: Mozilla Firefox 14.0.1
VLC player: VLC media player 2.0.3 Twoflower (revision 2.0.2-93-g77aa89e)
Don't know the version of the mozilla-plugin-vlc plugin (Don't know ho to test, but it's the latest on UBUNTU repositories)
browser-plugin-vlc 2.0.0-1
Please!! Help me!! I don't understand what am I doing wrong...
thank you.

It's not working in vlc 2.0. Try vlc 2.1 nightly.

Hi.
I have same problem (param "loop" and "autoloop" doesn't work) and I solved it with JavaScript.

Maybe it was useful:

Code: Select all

		<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" 
			width = "1120"
			height="894"
			id = "vlc"
			name = "vlc"
			autoplay = "True"
			toolbar = "false"
			bgcolor = "#000000"
			allowfullscreen = "false"
			loop = "true"
			autoloop = "true"
			filename = "70.mp4"			
			/>
 
		<script language="Javascript">
			function playAgain() {
				if(document.vlc.playlist.isPlaying==false) {
					document.vlc.playlist.play();
				}
				var s = setTimeout("playAgain()",1000);
			}
								
			var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
			vlc.video.aspectRatio='5:4';
			
			var s = setTimeout("playAgain()",1000);
		</script>

Windows 7, Chrome.
The task was - to play video file from local pc on html page (not from internet or other network, only from pc).

well... I'll try it and let you know.
I'll try it by the end of this week.
However, decided to go ahead and use mplayer plugin... for now it works however I did get a strange error on the first try, so to avoid it coming back for whatever reason I would love using VLC plugin (I do trust it to play *ANYTHING* starting with Audio\Video file parts and ending with some strange .doc files... )

instead of having a timer consumer resources, consider using the event listerners instead to detect the end of the playlist and then start it up again.
