Open VLC via link in webpage?

Postby TB the gr8 1 » 12 Oct 2009 14:04

Hi!
I am aiming to do a website, that list all the videofiles on the server, and when a user click on one of the movies it opens vlc and starts streaming it.

I am thinking a .php document, that list all the stuff from a database, what i need is the "link" thingi, how do i get it to automaticly open VLC and stream the file?
If the user chooses "open" when they click a link, it first donwnload the file, and then plays it. But i need it to stream...

Thankfull 4 any help
