I have a html file (getStream.html) that takes a stream from a certain url and show it. The code is the following:

I found this piece of code somewhere in the web. Maybe it helps you and I give you an update so far I accomodated it for the same purpose... Maybe I don't.... who the futt knows... with all the nogodders and dobedders in here :-/

function runVLC(target, stream)
{
var support=true
var addr='rtsp://' + window.location.hostname + stream
if ($.browser.msie){
$(target).html('')
}
else if ($.browser.mozilla || $.browser.webkit){
$(target).html('')
}
else{
support=false
$(target).empty().html('
Error: browser not supported!
')
}
if (support){
var vlc = document.getElementById('vlc')
if (vlc){
var opt = new Array(':network-caching=300')
try{
var id = vlc.playlist.add(addr, '', opt)
vlc.playlist.playItem(id)
}
catch (e){
$(target).empty().html('
Error: ' + e + '
URL: ' + addr + 
'
')
}
}
}
}
/* $(target + ' object').css({'width': '100%', 'height': '100%'}) */

I reduce the whole crap now to:

function runvlc(){
var target=$('body')
var error=$('#dialog_error')
var support=true
var addr='rtsp://../html/media/video/TESTCARD.MP4'
if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("msie")!=-1){
target.append('')
}
else if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("msie")==-1){
target.append('
')
}
else{
support=false
error.empty().html('Error: browser not supported!')
error.show()
if (support){
var vlc=document.getElementById('vlc')
if (vlc){
var options=new Array(':network-caching=300') /* set additional vlc--options */
try{ /* error handling */
var id = vlc.playlist.add(addr,'',options)
vlc.playlist.playItem(id)
}
catch (e){
error.empty().html('Error: ' + e + '
URL: ' + addr + '')
error.show()
}
}
}
}
};

Didn't get it to work in ie as well... 2b continued...
