Help with vlc embedded in html

Postby DuqueGZ » 16 Mar 2011 19:29

Hi!

First of all, I want to sorry about my bad english, but I hope you will be able to understand me and help me with my problem.

I am making some proofs with a "dummy" html code to get a videolan embedded to reproduce video.

I got this piece of html code from the Internet:

<embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="VLC" autoplay="yes"
loop="no" volume="100" width="640" height="480" target="example.avi">

But with this code the video doesn't reproduce on the web. If I change the attribute target by src I can view the video reproducing on the web, but I don't understand the reason.

In addition, my goal is to stream some video from a VLC player and then view this stream embedded on the player embedded on my html code.

I opened a VLC player on my computer and searching in Google i was able to stream video on the address rtp://192.X.X.X:5554 and then if I open another VLC player and I open a net stream on this address the video is reproduced on the second player (that's what I want to get on my html code!)

But if I put "rtp://192.X.X.X:5554" on the target attribute of the embed in my html code I don't get anything (and If I change target by src, no result yet).

I don't know what I'm doing bad, so I will be thank for your help.

Greets!

I resolved part of the problem!

I had a wrong configuration in the Firefox plugins and it was using Gnome Mplayer for reproduce "application/x-vlc-plugin", instead of VLC plugin. I changed this configuration and now I can see the video reproducing on the embedded player.

But now I have another problem. With the Gnome Mplayer I saw control buttons in the player for play, pause, stop, etc. the video, but now with the VLC plugin I haven't this controls and I don't know how can I pause the video.

Thanks in advance for your responses!

EDIT: Finally, I resolved this problem too. I used Javascript to make some buttons that when are clicked they play, stop, pause and mute the video (that's what I need for the moment) and it work's

There is not a way to have the "classics" controls that are owns of the player not? I mean, this controls you can view and use when you open a player on your desktop (in fact, this controls was these what I saw when the Gnome Mplayer appeared on my page).

There is no official way to have the desktop controls on the plugin, but you can go here: http://vlcwebcontrolpanel.wordpress.com ... rol-panel/ to find a javascript version(no skins, just the default). Keep in mind though, that the api is still broken in versions 1.1.x.
