Tutorial on how to make a playlist extention?

Postby nebra » 03 Feb 2015 21:43

I need a detailed tutorial on how to make a playlist extention?

another thing. I'm using a browser extension called flashgot to stream Flv urls with vlc. you can find how it works in this link http://askubuntu.com/questions/169622/h ... al-players
The problem some sites If we try to open the FLV URLS in the browser we get a flv file download dialog, but if we try to open it in vlc we get the error message"Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL".
Other sites we can download the flv file in the browser and we can stream the flv url in vlc.

Example: here http://pollystreaming.com/That-821770s- ... ight_v7374
If you open the flv url in vlc, it will begin streaming.

But here http://ancensored.com/clip/RoboDoc/Brooke-Newton/42930 it's not working.

The FlashGot can send both video links to VLC and they both play there. If you can find direct link to a video in the source code of a web page, then it is easy to write a parser for VLC. For other cases you need some hacking skills.
Please check the Lua scripts included in VLC and at addons web site. Basic information and useful links are provided in the pinned topic: Getting started?
