Pirlouwi:

I made a tweak to one of the videolan Java files, but what I did didn't
 work, so I put it back. All I'm running is your changes from the
 tar.gz file you posted to the mailing list:
 * Modified fileinfo.rpy to point to vlcwin.rpy
 * vlcwin.rpy
 * videolan directory to hold Java support files

I had an issue with the plugin not installing correctly (Firefox on
 Windows XP) so I took out the hand-installed VLC and used the version with
 the Windows installer instead. That properly installed the plugin and
 I could get playback.

I got a chance to try things out at home last night on the LAN. I found I can 
definitely scroll around inside the buffered area of an MP3 (both forward and 
backward and forward again) but video does not behave the same way. There seems 
to be a very small area around the current playback time where you can change, 
but if you go outside of that (forward or backward) then the error pops up. 
Perhaps it has to do with the video being a much higher bitrate than the MP3.

I have also noticed some of my MP3s stream 'live' and some stream with an 
ending time. The Java code looks for a total length of the object and if it 
doesn't find one, assumes it's a live stream. So now I question where it's 
getting the total length from. Is it just being lazy and trying to look it up 
in the media tag? And if it's not available, it assumes the media is a live 
stream? Just a minor thing to look into, I suppose.

Anyway, those are my results. Hope they help.

James
