viewing UDP stream in ActiveX control

[dbriley]

Hi,

I'm having some troubles getting the VLC ActiveX control to connect to a UDP multicast stream. I've been trying using both VLC 0.8.5 and 0.8.4 with no luck so far. I'm using IE6 on XP SP2. I can successfully play files from disk in the ActiveX control, and I can connect to the stream using the standalone VLC client, just not with the ActiveX control.

I've been trying all sorts of things, but here's the code as it stands at the moment.

Code: Select all

<div class="stream" id="stream_x"> <h3>Stream X</h3> <div class="feed" id="feed_x"> <object id="control_x" width="250" height="250" events="True" classid="CLSID:E23FE9C6-778E-49D4-B537-38FCDE4887D8" codebase="http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/latest/win32/axvlc.cab"> <param name="Src" value="udp://@224.0.0.1:1234"/> <!--param name="Src" value="C:\Data\Projects\ioN\Media\WalthamResponse\Video\lalo_briefing.mpg"/--> <param name="AutoPlay" value="True"/> <param name="AutoLoop" value="False"/> <param name="ShowDisplay" value="True"/> </object> </div> </div>

I guess I've missed something with the Src parameter, but I've been looking through the Wiki and docs trying various things for quite a while with no luck.

I'd appreciate any help.

Many thanks,

Daniel

Well, I came in this morning, and it seems to work, seemingly without changing a thing, one of those days I guess.
