As far as I can tell through testing, the current plugin versions for VLC will not support input of ASX or any other types of playlist wrappers. The plugin does work with individual files though but only properly for IE, Safari, and Firefox. In Chrome and Opera the Mozilla plugin conflicts with and takes over embedded WMP players.
Opening a .asx playlist directly in VLC through "Open Network Stream" does work as does clicking on an asx file as long as file associations for asx are set to open with VLC. However this is not the same as embedding VLC in a webpage.
I do see many posts that reference playlists but I do not know how to implement with the following embed code:
<OBJECT id=vlc codeBase="
http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/video ... /axvlc.cab" classid=clsid:E23FE9C6-778E-49D4-B537-38FCDE4887D8 width=506 height=380 events="True"><PARAM NAME="AutoLoop" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="AutoPlay" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Toolbar" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="ExtentWidth" VALUE="13387"><PARAM NAME="ExtentHeight" VALUE="10054"><PARAM NAME="MRL" VALUE="
http://server.com/mediafiletoplay"><PARAM NAME="Visible" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Volume" VALUE="100"><PARAM NAME="StartTime" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="BaseURL" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="BackColor" VALUE="0">
<embed allowscriptaccess="never" type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="VLC" autoplay="yes" loop="no" volume="100" width="506" height="380" target="
http://server.com/mediafiletoplay"></OBJECT>
If anyone can tell me how to make .asx files work with the embed plugins I would appreciate it very much.
