Tim,


Finally,


I found that "file:///c:/Temp/debugger.wmv" works with EWB, but "C:/Temp/debugger.wmv" not.

"https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_VAg-pGiiF6YVVIbmFkZkpRSWc/edit" works with FF and not
with EWB, and I couldn't find how I should wrote this adress for being understood but EWB.

Eric,



<< FF 19.0.2 >>

Yep, same version works fine here.  I'm guessing that the problem is either
with some security settings regarding the execution of add-ons, or a problem
with loading whatever media player is associated with .wmv files in Windows.

Ahhh, I wasn't aware that you were using a local file system URL, as opposed
to an actual domain URL.

I'm not sure what you're asking here.  Could you please elaborate ?

Tim,

The URL : "https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_VAg-pGiiF6YVVIbmFkZkpRSWc/edit"
written in the FF's  adress field shows a google video (wich is a .wmv one).

The same URL written in EWB's vidéo player, with the same FF, do not shows the vidéo.

Regards,

Eric

I can't access that resource using my Google account, so I've requested
access from you.  After that, I can test it here with EWB and see what the
issue is.  My guess is that the resource is inaccessible for some reason.

Ok Tim, this video should be accessible :

That URL is not responding directly with the WMV stream and is launching the
Adobe Flash Player to play the video.

In order to load files into plugins in the browser, the URL needs to return
the raw file stream from the target resource and cannot return any wrapper
HTML, etc.

If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Ok Tim .

Is there a way to play that kind of videos with EWB ?
(launching the player with the video as argument).

Eric.

The only way to handle such a case would be with a TPage component, which
works just like a TPlugin in terms of just setting the URL (no need for MIME
types):

http://www.elevatesoft.com/manual?action=viewcomp&id=ewb1&comp=TPage

If you need an example, just let me know.

Ok Tim, using a TPage control works.

Thanck you.
