View VLC embedded on webpage without downloading VLC?
Posted: 03 Apr 2013 15:13
Here is what I've done so far:
Webpage has the plugin embedded and plays nicely from my streaming computer.
My question though is if there is a way so that the client side can visit my site and view the stream without having to download VLC. I was thinking that I could have the client plugin linked so the client computer can download the needed browser plugin and view the stream. Heres the embed code I'm currently using:
<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" version="VideoLAN.VLCPlugin.2" id="vlc" height="400" width="700">
<script>
var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
vlc.playlist.add("http://192.168.1.100:8080/stream", "live",
":network-caching=150");
vlc.playlist.play();
</script>
I've read on one forum about possibly compiling the plugins but some directions would be nice.
Thank you all in advance.
