streaming videos in internet explorer 6
Posted: 04 Sep 2006 02:38
i've spent hours trying to make this work, help would be much appreciated...
windows media player is broken on my system therefore i would like to use vlc as a substitute.
i'm trying to make vlc the default helper application for eg. wmv files in internet explorer so i can watch embedded video in a browser window or alternatively make vlc start up upon clicking a video link in the browser.
im running windows xp sp2, internet explorer 6. vlc 0.8.5 and the activex plugin are installed.
so far it just _doesn't_ work
i hope this is clear enough.
thank you
