VLCcontrols is a Jquery class that embeds and controls VLC in your webpage.
NB: DEPRECATED, LAST UPDATE : OCT, 2010
Detection and embedding is based on swfobject
recent VLC >= 1.0 new security restrictions disable lots of plugin functionnality (output). now need some serious rewrite so moved to github !
28/06/2010 : just dropped a new jQuery class that works better and with new VLC versions. see jquery.html
Examples :
API :
// create a player in div '#vlc1'
var player = VLCobject.embedPlayer('vlc1', 400, 300, true);
player.play('http://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_480p_surround-fix.avi');
// set a [VLC option][2]
player.options.set("start-time", 50);
// reset all VLC options
player.options.clear();
// start playing uri
player.play(uri);
// stop playing
player.stop(); INSTALLATION
