Hi,
0.8.2 release contains activeX plugin.
Does it mean that a user can read a .avi video inside an HTML page, using VLC, dispite of installed codecs and default MM Player?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

nice demo, but the videofile is 20 MB and on a not so good Internet connection it seems that something is not working !
Is the download progressive (playing while downloading) ? I observed that it started immediately but then completely stopped to play.

Maybe it would be good to provide a javascript which wraps around the plugin and automatically decides whether it is Mozilla or ActiveX, and which makes the whole thing XHTML-compliant.
Some Flash people have put a lot of thoughts in this kind of stuff, see
here
I plan to write some kind of integration for the RubyOnRails Webframework, as soon as I find time.

Fine, but,
Inside an html file, I defined a VLC window (as on .../activex.html):
- the Videolan logo is not displayed,
- a clic on the version button displays "undefined",
- other buttons display: "erreur: cet object ne gère pas cette propriété ou cette méthode" of origine document.vlc.
I made a mistake, but where?
Other informations: NT with IE
Thanks

How could I write that I want to use VLC player, despite of default player?

XP pro SP1
IE 6.0
VLC 0.8.2-test3 Janus
Inside a html file with this code:
Code: Select all
<OBJECT id="vlc" classid="clsid:E23FE9C6-778E-49D4-B537-38FCDE4887D8"
codebase="http://www.videolan.org/mirror.html?mirror=http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/&file=vlc/0.8.2/win32/vlc-0.8.2-win32.exe"
type="application/x-vlc" width="255" height="250">
<param name="Src" value="Videos/MaisonBlanche_026.avi" />
<param name="ShowDisplay" value="True" />
<param name="Loop" value="True" />
<param name="AutoPlay" value="True" />
</OBJECT>
- IE displays VLC logo and the 4 buttons without error message, but the video does not run;
- with the WebExpert (6.03.0)'s internal reader (F12), it runs ...
Any idea?
