To fully understand the concept simply try this: 1) Create a webpage with background color #000001 and some content to test. 2) Start VLC fullscreen, and switch to firefox showing the webpage fullscreen.
My advanced version of the webpage uses scriptaculous, AJAX and PHP to show data from VLC and other sources. The webpage animations are triggered via a web interface running on any pc serving as backend, or by VLC data scheduled by PHP, or basicly any XML / RSS feeds that i feed through PHP. Another posibility would be to control VLC via the webpage, alike VLC's own webinterface. I once developed the webpage as a proof of concept to be used in a greenscreen effect for a lanparty where i ran the coverage devision, but we eventually settled on more expensive and better means. Even better would be to use a FF overay control and embed that in VLC itself, but i'm not -yet- very good at that so this is the next best thing. And quite easy to develop. Notes: - Not IE: I intend the use of FF above IE because it handles scripts and renders like poo, FF simply doesn't break my code often. - reply-all: np happens to me all the time! o'_o _______________________________________________ dev-embedding mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-embedding
