Hi
Just installed VLC 1.0.1 and its associated plug-in(s) (ActiveX and Mozilla).
It looks like there is still a bug in the Moz plugin, as I can't see nor hear any asx streaming from these pages with FF (The "waiting for video" is displayed) :
http://www.nasa.gov/55644main_NASATV_Windows.asx (already reported in a different thread)
http://www.rfm.fr/ (click on "Ecouter RFM", then "J'ecoute la radio"") - asx streaming content apparently...
Whereas the same URLs run well with the stand-alone VLC app.
Running Firefox 3.0.13 here (WinXP).
Rgds
Mozilla plug-in

Re: Mozilla plug-in

Re: Mozilla plug-in
Add VLC install dir to %PATH%. Go to Control Panel ->System -> Advanced-> Environment Variables.
Your NASA link works fine with the VLC 0.9.4 Mozilla plug-in.

Re: Mozilla plug-in
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.
