Set VideoOutput Device in WebPlugin

[eli13]

Hello.

Is it possible to set the video-output device to 'Windows GDI-Output' in the VLC-WebPlugin? We have the problem that quite often someone is using Windows Remote Desktop to access a computer. The browser is running on the remote computer, therefore also the VLC-plugin and the screen in the Remote Terminal just stays black.
This is the same for the VLC-standalone: If you do not set the video-output to 'Windows GDI-output' no video can be seen from a remotedesktop - what makes sense if you imagine that vlc uses some fancy opengl/direct3d whatever rendering that by-passes the remoteDesktop thing.

The last option would probably be to delete all video-output dlls in the vlc installation except the gdi-output.. but it would of course be nicer if setting an option would be possible.

Thanks for any help.
(Using vlc 2.0.5)

Edited:
I tried with adding the options
:vout=wingdi
--vout wingdi
--vout=wingdi
but it doesnt seem to have any impact on the plugin.

Then I chose the brute-force method and deleted all .dll files in video_output, except libwingdi_plugin.dll.
If I start the plugin now, it will start rendering the video into a new image instead of the location of the plugin in the html-page..

So again: Any way to make the vlc-plugin v2.0.5 use wingdi as output and still render to the plugin-area and not into a single new window?

Edit again:
It seems this can be "resolved" by deleting
- libdirect3d_plugin.dll
- libdirectx_plugin.dll
- libvdummy_plugin.dll
- libyuv_plugin.dll
As with all these video-outputs no video is shown over RemoteDesktop while with
- Direct2d
- OpenGl
- WinGdi
Video also works over a RemoteDesktop connection. By deleting the files from the install-directory the plugin seems to use one of the RemoteDesktop-compatible video-outputs.

Of course deleting some DLLs after installing is not a very nice solution, an option would be great.

try to use windowless mode (vlc-plugin 2.0.6)

The plugin in 2.0.6 is IMHO totally broken and unusable atm: Most of the Javascript objects are not there (especially playlist).

But yes, it works fine with fbVLC 2.0.5 in windowsLessMode with Remote Desktop.

Then you could try FBVLC

Your installation is utterly broken if you need this.

Why is my installation broken?

I just noticed that watching a videostream with Windows Remote Desktop on a remote Machine does not work if VLC uses any of the DirectX/Direct3D things. And as you cannot set the vout-device in the WebPlugin the only way to resolve the problem is by deleting the modules. Do you have a better solution?
