Hi,
Im doing video streaming from a VLC server and want to create a website for PDA users so they can click on a link and VLC will be launched with the stream URL so users need not copy and paste the link into VLC manually.
Any idea how this can be done? Thx
Launch vlc from PDA website
Hi looneytoonz,
I accomplished what you are describing but my link connects the user to a RTSP stream. I'm not sure if you are using RTSP, but here's how I did it:
-I created a file with the extension .m3u
-In that file, I pasted the link that you normally have to type in order to connect to the RTSP stream (for example, the contents of the file would be something like, "rtsp://<your.ip.here>/<filename>"
-When the user clicks on the link it will open up in VLC.
One thing to note: when you install VLC on the PDA the .m3u extension should be associated with VLC otherwise it will prompt the user to choose an application to load the file with.
I hope that helps!
