Plugin questionable at best since 0.9.X or I fail HELP

Since the 9.x versions of VLC i've had very little success making the vlc plugin work, usual issues are no vide but gets audio just fine,
other things range to javascript errors calling the playlist.play function (Invalid method etc)

all the players i've found that support the >=8.6 style of embedding it are failing too

http://code.revolunet.com/VLCcontrols/V ... ample.html
http://people.videolan.org/~damienf/plugin-0.8.6.html

Both of these i've used for reference when i ran into issues but they exibit the same thing, audio but no video (my current issue)

also http urls don't seem to work as MRL's anymore for example
http://images.apple.com/movies/wb/i_am_ ... _h.480.mov

simply does nothing when I add it, it does enter the playlist (according to the playlist.item count)
yet I can't play it..

if i simply enter udp://@224.0.0.1 and start a multicast stream of the same video (by opening the url in another vlc instance and streaming out put to multicast) it can fetch it..

is there something I am missing I am at wits end

Hi
I've got the same problem
The solution described here viewtopic.php?f=16&t=51153
If to say briefly you have to add
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC
to your PATH environment variable (and re-logon)
