Vlc plugin 2.1.0.0 mute function now doesn´t working

[Budvar]

Hello, when I was updated VLC to actual version 2.1.0, my embeded streams started unmuted, before update with older plugin was mute function fully functional.
Is in 2.1.0.0. plugin some new method, how to make embeded plugin muted ?

My code is...
Can you tell me, how to fix mute function ?
Thank you...

Edited: i try unistall 2.1. and install vlc-2.0.6-win32 and mute is functional...

Code: Select all

<html> <embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" version="VideoLAN.VLCPlugin.2" width="300" height="225" id="vlc"> </embed> <script language="Javascript"> var vlc=document.getElementById("vlc"); var id=vlc.playlist.add("udp://@111.111.111.111:1111"); vlc.playlist.playItem(id); vlc.audio.toggleMute(); var seek_time = 1000 * 50; var volume_number = 10; </script> </html>

I can confirm this. Reproducable with activex- and mozilla-plugin.
It works only after about one second after the start of playback, I have the same problem with vlc.audio.volume. (https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=113301)

Alternatively, you can use the tag-attribute "mute" (https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation ... attributes), but this attribute does not work, too...

I too am having this issue with the audio functions with Chrome and Mozilla. None of the audio functions (either embedded or javascript) had any effect on the actual volume of the video. Querying the audio object methods returned expected values... the sound just never changed.

Reverting my users back to 2.0.5 resolved the problem for me.

You should create a new ticket on the VLC Trac with the link to this thread.

Because the problem is still not resolved, I have now developed a workaround, that allows to set audio-settings at the start of playback. With my code you can, for example, enable the mute-mode or set a custom volume.

Here is the code:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>VLC Workarround</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <script type="text/javascript"> //Options, which you want to set at start mute = false; volume = 50; settingsSet = false; window.addEventListener("load", start, false); function start(){ vlc = document.getElementById("obj_vlc"); registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerOpening", handle_MediaPlayerOpening); registerVLCEvent("MediaPlayerTimeChanged", handle_MediaPlayerTimeChanged); } function handle_MediaPlayerOpening(){ //Set the Settings on every new opening settingsSet = false; } function handle_MediaPlayerTimeChanged(){ if(!settingsSet){ //Only from this point VLC will accept audio-settings vlc.audio.mute = mute; vlc.audio.volume = volume; settingsSet = true; //Set this settings only on the first calling of this event } } function registerVLCEvent(event, handler){ if(vlc.attachEvent){ // Microsoft vlc.attachEvent(event, handler); } else if(vlc.addEventListener){ // Mozilla: DOM level 2 vlc.addEventListener(event, handler, false); } else{ // DOM level 0 vlc["on" + event] = handler; } } </script> </head> <body> <h1>VLC Volume Workarround</h1> <embed id="obj_vlc" type="application/x-vlc-plugin" pluginspage="http://www.videolan.org" target="http://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_480p_surround-fix.avi" style="width:600px; height:480px;"> </body> </html>

I hope I could help someone with the code
