Hi,

all browsers have dropped the support for plugins, only Internet Explorer still supports it.
For Internet Explorer, the following code will work:

Code: Select all

<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org"
width="640"
height="480"
id="vlc" />

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function start(){
	var id = vlc.playlist.add("Local file location");
	vlc.playlist.playItem(id);
}
window.addEventListener("load", start, false);
//-->
</script>

Hi,

You may want to wait for VLC.js, which is pending work currently.

Any update on this VLC.js?
I see no mention of one that’s not abandoned on the wiki.
