a link in html, that will open a movie directly in vlc???

[MrExNice1979]

My question is: Does anybody know how to write a link in html, that a movie will directly open in the vlc player

My solution until now: I just designed an own vlc player in html(with the vlc mozilla plugin and the javascript functions. But I want to have the oppurtunity to open a movie directly in the vlc player, which is installed on each client.

Another question: Does anybody know, how to write a html, javascript code that the user can control the volume of the embeded player on the website?

Thanks and go on, I wil go on, too, and will post my solutions to support that great videolan project

with kind regards

well, so is it possible or not

you can do it on the server side of the link, by adding the following header

Code: Select all

Content-Disposition: filename=mymove.avi

on the client side, you may be able to do through javascript

Hello, thanks for the quick answer,....

okay i tried this out:

<code>

<a href="clips/torwart-cool%5B1%5D.mpeg" target="_blank" Content-Disposition: filename="clips/torwart-cool%5B1%5D.mpeg">test</a>

</code>

in my html body,
but I think that was wrong, it just opened the movie in a new window in the browser in fullscreen modus (I think it is the same as the link without
Content-Disposition: filename="clips/torwart-cool%5B1%5D.mpeg")

but i'm sure that you mean something other.

Can you please explain me, where I have to put your code in?

thx and go on

I just try to google to find "the javascript functions" with the keywords:

javascript open movie vlc

the only stuff to that, which I could find, was the stuff I posted here
There is nothing about this topic in the worldwide web



Can´t anyone help?

1.step:try to put the vlc deafult settings so, that rtsp-streaming will be open in the apllication, and not in the browser,

2.step and use in the webpage rtsp:// and not http:// for the link

if it works i don#t know but thats all I found
