HowTo Integrate VLC plugin in your webpage

VLCjs javascript library

I've created this small javascript library to allows you to easyly add the VLC plugin in your web pages.

Here's how you add the control to your page :

• first, download the source zip and extract it to your website (i suppose you create a VLCjs subfolder)
• then, create a simple html test page like this on your server :

<script language="javascript" src="VLCjs/VLCjs.js"></script>
<object id="myplayer" classid="clsid:9BE31822-FDAD-461B-AD51-BE1D1C159921" codebase="http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/latest/win32/axvlc.cab"></object>
<script language="javascript">
        window.onload = function() {
            var vlc = new VLCplayer("myplayer", 400, 300);
            vlc.setIdleImage("idle2.gif");
            vlc.play("http://example.com/movie.mpeg");
        }
</script>

this should create a player object and launch a movie ;)
