Thanks to everyone who pays attention to my project. I received several letters concerning the idea and I see that it excites many people. I am open to your suggestions.
About the project “GUI interfaces for the browsers plug-ins”
The goal is to add GUI to the Firefox plug-in “in order to have, in the web pages embedded mode, buttons to control VLC media player as in WMP or Youtube player”. Next step is to develop similar plug-in for Internet Explore. Also “a replacement for all preconfigured media players embedded in web pages” should be provided. More detailed description (but a little bit outdated) can be found at the application information page http://code.google.com/soc/2008/videolan/appinfo.html?csaid=CD2BD85FF24811F4.
Some requirements to note:
- toolbar at the bottom of the video drawing area
- toolbar vissible by default
- toolbar should be possible to disable by webdesigner with JS API.
- toolbar should not be autohiding (think users won't understand)
- toolbar should have nicely designed buttons
- toolbar should work under Firefox windows
- toolbar should work under Firefox linux
- toolbar should work under Mozilla windows?
- toolbar should work under Safari MacOS X (pdherbemont)
- toolbar should have same JS API on all browsers (IE/Firefox
Who I am
My name is Vladimir Belousov. I’m third-year university student of Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (http://phystech.edu).
