Active X Controls and Skins

[learning]

Hello, I was finally able to get VLC to work in a embedded page inside IE6 using the ActiveX plugin. All the DEMO controls work fine. I would like to know first, what can I do to configure it to play a certain URL/file "Automatically". Second, where can find a complete set of the ActiveX controls? I am mostly interested in "Fullscreen", "Playlist options". Are there any available? if not, is it in the works?

One more, are "Skins" configurable only on ver 8.4 ?? pls advise.

Thank you, learning
