See this topic about the activex plugin. I have no problems in IE plugin, audio is played fine.

I do have a show stopper in Firefox plugin, it starts playback audio muted.

Calling vlc.audio.mute=false or vlc.audio.toggleAudioMute() methods does absolutely nothing in Firefox plugin. Printing vlc.audio.mute boolean value says TRUE. This is a weird showstopper problem, why is mozilla pluging to start muted and never want to enable audio.

edit: found a problem, it was audio volume is zeroed for some reason. I call "vlc.audio.volume=100" and Firefox audio works now.
Audio attributes in IE plugin shows:
vlc.audio.count=2, vlc.audio.track=1, vlc.audio.volume=100
Audio attributes in FF plugin shows:
vlc.audio.count=2, vlc.audio.track=1, vlc.audio.volume=0

Excuse me, but would you mind explaining exactly how you managed to fix this? I'm running into the same problem--the plugin always opens as mute in Firefox--and I have no idea what to do. I'm afraid I'm a non-coder, so when you say you "call vlc.audio.volume", is that HTML for a web page that uses the plugin, or is it an internal setting for Firefox itself? If so, how do you change it?

Thanks!
