Hello,
When using the embed below I am not able to get video to display in the plugin on IE11. This embed works with Chrome and Mozilla everytime. I have also tried 64 bit VLC with the same result. The application works perfectly to decode the udp video, just no the plugin on IE 11.
The components:
Windows 7 or 8.1
IE 11 (11.0.9600.17801)
VLC Plugin 2.2.1

The html code:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>IE VLC Plugin Test Page</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<div id="plugin">
<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" id="vlc" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" target="udp://@225.168.1.1:1234"
height="480" width="640" />
</div>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Regards,

Jordan

Does it work with this test page?
http://git.videolan.org/?p=npapi-vlc.gi ... ml;hb=HEAD

In the most cases, the 32 bit version of VLC is needed.

da2424,
Thank you for the tip. I copied the test page invocation of the object and it now works. I was under the impression from the documentation that with the new plugin, the object tag for IE was no longer needed.

I was under the impression from the documentation that with the new plugin, the object tag for IE was no longer needed.

The impression is true, the object tag should not be needed in v2.2.1...

You can try to re-register the library:

Open CMD with administrative privileges and run:

Code: Select all

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\axvlc.dll"

da2424,
That also solved the problem. Do you have any ideas why it would have been working with the simple embed, which implies that the .dll was registered, and then stop working and require the re-registration of the .dll?

It could be a problem of your last vlc update. But I have tested the installer, it should re-register the .dll automatically.
