==Usage==
 <nowiki>{{protocol |<protocol> |info= |mod= }}</nowiki>
The purpose of the template is to visually inform readers that VLC supports the protocol and through which module.<br />
The page will be added automatically to [[:Category:Protocols]].

Parameters:
* (unnamed) (required): the text in the small box, defaults to <samp>'''??'''</samp>
* <code>'''<nowiki>|info=</nowiki>'''</code> (optional) extra text
* <code>'''<nowiki>|mod=</nowiki>'''</code> (optional) link to a particular module while displaying the {{Tag|protocol}} given

Enter the protocol name as-is. If the name differs other than casing supply the module name with <code>'''<nowiki>|mod=</nowiki>'''</code>

==Examples==
For [[HTTP]] the casing difference between ''[[HTTP]]'' and ''{{docmod|http}}'' is not a problem:
 <code>{{{{PAGENAME}}<nowiki>|HTTP</nowiki>}}</code>
{{{{PAGENAME}}|HTTP|nocat=y}}
For [[RTSP]], the protocol is handled by the {{docmod|live}} module:
 <code>{{{{PAGENAME}}<nowiki>|RTSP</nowiki>|mod=live}}</code>
{{{{PAGENAME}}|RTSP|mod=live|nocat=y}}
To say something for [[Dummy]]:
 <code>{{{{PAGENAME}}<nowiki>|Dummy</nowiki>|info=Fakes codec input, but is no longer used.}}</code>
{{{{PAGENAME}}|Dummy|info=Fakes codec input, but is no longer used.|nocat=y}}
