Well i'm a very beginner with vlc, and i want to do the same thing.
Now i try for setVariable("extraintf",variant)
(variant="http")
But it didn't seem to work

Are you trying to:
1. Control an ActiveX control on a remote machine with HTTP interface?
2. Control an ActiveX control embeded in the same webpage?
3. Control a VLC instance that streams to an ActiveX control on the same page as the controls?
4. Something else? (please explain in detail)

Me, I fact i have made a plugin for my ATI remote wonder that control vlc with http request.

Now i want to build an application with 2 vlc (One big fullscreen and a little in corner for preview of another stream). So i use ActiveX

This two thing work (almost) separately.

So i need to enable http control on two activex (2 ports).

I think it is 1

I have enable http control on the activex by setting it in the default configuration.

But I can't do this for the two active x, because i need one on port 8080 and another on 8081.

Any idea ?

Thanks

BTW : i always have an error on getvariable and setvariable. Which variable name are allow ?

In the default configuration file :

D:\Documents and Settings\user name\Application Data\vlc\vlcrc

At this line :

Code: Select all

extraintf=http
And this one :

Code: Select all

http-host=127.0.0.1:8081
I start two plugins, in my app, and between start i switch configuration file
one with 8080 and the other with 8081.
It's dirty, but it works.
