You could listen to the MediaPlayerEncounteredError event. If this event fires, wait for a while and try to start the playback again automatically.
Here is a sample how you can use events: https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation ... #Example_2

Hi, i'm also looking for a method to reconnect on connection loss, can you please provide more information about this event?

If i add this code:

function registerVLCEvent(event, handler) {
var vlc = getVLC("vlc");
if (vlc) {
if (vlc.attachEvent) {
// Microsoft
vlc.attachEvent (event, handler);
} else if (vlc.addEventListener) {
// Mozilla: DOM level 2
vlc.addEventListener (event, handler, false);
}
}
}
// stop listening to event
function unregisterVLCEvent(event, handler) {
var vlc = getVLC("vlc");
if (vlc) {
if (vlc.detachEvent) {
// Microsoft
vlc.detachEvent (event, handler);
} else if (vlc.removeEventListener) {
// Mozilla: DOM level 2
vlc.removeEventListener (event, handler, false);
}
}
}
function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
alert("EncounteredError");
}

registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerEncounteredError", handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError);

How to say "wait for a while and try to start the playback again automatically"?

Thanks!

This event fires if the player stops the playback because an error was encountered. For example, this can be an network error.

How to say "wait for a while and try to start the playback again automatically"?

Use the method setTimeout():

Code: Select all

function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
    setTimeout(restartPlayer, 3000); //wait for 3 seconds
}
function restartPlayer(){
    vlc.playlist.play();
}

function restartPlayer(){
vlc.playlist.play();
}

Many thanks for your explanation but i'm surely doing something wrong..

Here is my code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
</head>

<body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

<embed id="vlcEmb" type="application/x-google-vlc-plugin" version="VideoLAN.VLCPlugin.2" autoplay="yes" loop="no" width="1280" height="720"

</object>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

function registerVLCEvent(event, handler) {
var vlc = getVLC("vlc");
if (vlc) {
if (vlc.attachEvent) {
// Microsoft
vlc.attachEvent (event, handler);
} else if (vlc.addEventListener) {
// Mozilla: DOM level 2
vlc.addEventListener (event, handler, false);
}
}
}

function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
alert("EncounteredError");
}

registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerEncounteredError", handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError);

function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
setTimeout(restartPlayer, 10000); //wait for 3 seconds
}
function restartPlayer(){
vlc.playlist.play();
}

</script>

</body>
</html>

But nothing happen when reconnect...

Yes, I forgot that vlc.playlist.stop() is needed before restarting is possible.
The following script should work.
I have also added a workaround for Internet Explorer 11.

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
	<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=10"/> <!-- attachEvent() doesn't work in IE11. As a workaround, emulate the IE10 mode -->

<script type="text/javascript">

registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerEncounteredError", handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError);

function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
	setTimeout(restartPlayer, 10000); //wait for 3 seconds
}

function restartPlayer(){
	var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
	vlc.playlist.stop();
	vlc.playlist.play();
}

Using this code instead:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=10"/>

function registerVLCEvent(event, handler) {
var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
if (vlc) {
if (vlc.attachEvent) {

// Mozilla: DOM level 2
vlc.addEventListener (event, handler, false);
}
}
}
registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerEncounteredError", handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError);
function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
setTimeout(restartPlayer, 3000); //wait for 3 seconds
}

function restartPlayer()
{
var vlc = document.getElementById("vlc");
vlc.playlist.stop();
vlc.playlist.play();
}

</script>

</body>

I see the video but don't reconnect after 3sec..

I can't understand where is the error.. i'm using IE11

Thanks a lot for your answers!!

Maybe VLC doesn't dedect an error.
Does the MediaPlayerEncounteredError event firing?
You can test it with this code:

Code: Select all

function handle_MediaPlayerEncounteredError(){
    alert("Error dedected!");
    setTimeout(restartPlayer, 3000); //wait for 3 seconds
}

It should appear an window with the text "Error dedected".
If yes, you could try to use vlc.playlist.playItem(0) instead of vlc.playlist.stop() and vlc.playlist.play()

I think you focused the problem, no alert appear so vlc idk why don't go in error state..
