I know that we can embed vlc plugin in html. Anyone know that if we can embed vlc plugin in flash??

I been googling but cannot found any answer. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you very much.

Actually y i wanna use vlc in flash is because i would like to play movie in flash for user interactivity and meanwhile i need to streamline the movie using vlc.

Anyone has any idea i can achieve this is appreciated. Thank you very much.

That is not possible and probably never will be, but what you easily can do, is to control the VLC-Video from a flashmovie, they can communicate with each other via javascript, if you are not familiar with javasript I recommend you to use for that the macromedia Javascript Kit which you can find at http://osflash.org

hi rsaccon
communicate with each other via javascript is that mean the play,pause,stop functions those? Then how we can embed vlc-video in flash? wat i know is drag and drop the normal video into flash.

Thank you so much .

yes, and as I said before, real embedding is not popssible, at least i think so, but you can have on your website layout a flashmvovie above, below, left and right of the VLC plugin surface and then it looks at least like it is embedded. And the flashmovies could talk to each other via LocalConnection (Actionscript) that is fast, because IPC-based (memory mapped file). I don't undestand wat you mean by drag and drop.

drag and drop mean i store the video into the flash library and i drag and drop it onto the stage. It is a method of embed the video into flash.

Thank you very much for the information.
