The Javascript interface to the plugin does not work. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try browsing this: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Simple Plug-in Test</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <center> <h1> XPConnect Scriptable Sample Plug-in </h1> </center> This page contains a testcase which demonstrates the work of scriptable plug-in with Mozilla. This example plug-in has no native GUI and does not draw anything in the plugin window. Clicking on the button will result in calling native plugin method from JavaScript. Show Version will instruct the plug-in to retrieve the Mozilla user agent string and return it to JavaScript to show in the alert box. <br><br> <center> <embed onMediaComplete="NewFile();" type="application/x-mplayer2" width=500 height=400 autostart=0 filename="file:///home/kdekorte/Movies/duality.divx"><br> <script> var embed = document.embeds[0]; function complete() { alert("Media Complete"); } function Play() { embed.Play(); } function CPlay() { embed.controls.play(); } function CPause() { embed.controls.pause(); } function CStop() { embed.controls.stop(); } function Pause() { embed.Pause(); } function DoPlay() { embed.DoPlay(); } function DoPause() { embed.DoPause(); } function Stop() { embed.Stop(); } function Quit() { embed.quit(); } function FastForward() { embed.FastForward(); } function FastReverse() { embed.FastReverse(); } function PlayState() { alert(embed.playState); } function OrigFile() { embed.filename = "09_Holiday.mp3"; embed.play(); } function NewFile() { embed.filename = "sexy.mpg"; embed.Play(); } function File() { alert(embed.filename); } function gTime() { alert(embed.getTime()); } function gDuration() { alert(embed.getDuration()); } function gPercent() { alert(embed.getPercent()); } function FS() { embed.fullscreen = true; } function FSOff() { embed.fullscreen = false; } function ControlsOn() { embed.ShowControls = true; } function ControlsOff() { embed.ShowControls = false; } </script> <br> <form name="formname"> <input type=button value="Play" onclick='Play()'> <input type=button value="ControlsPlay" onclick='CPlay()'> <input type=button value="ControlsPause" onclick='CPause()'> <input type=button value="ControlsStop" onclick='CStop()'> <input type=button value="DoPlay" onclick='DoPlay()'> <input type=button value="Pause" onclick='Pause()'> <input type=button value="DoPause" onclick='DoPause()'> <input type=button value="Stop" onclick='Stop()'> <input type=button value="Quit" onclick='Quit()'> <br> <input type=button value="FF" onclick='FastForward()'> <input type=button value="Rew" onclick='FastReverse()'> <input type=button value="State" onclick='PlayState()'> <input type=button value="Orginal File" onclick='OrigFile()'> <input type=button value="New File" onclick='NewFile()'> <input type=button value="Filename" onclick='File()'> <input type=button value="Time" onclick='gTime()'> <input type=button value="Duration" onclick='gDuration()'> <input type=button value="Percent" onclick='gPercent()'> <input type=button value="FS" onclick='FS()'> <input type=button value="Window" onclick='FSOff()'> <input type=button value="Controls ON" onclick='ControlsOn()'> <input type=button value="Controls OFF" onclick='ControlsOff()'> </form> </center> </BODY> </HTML> I have added the following to my ebuild: if [ -d /usr/lib/mozilla/components ]; then insinto /usr/lib/mozilla/components doins mplayerplug-in.xpt fi if [ -d /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/components ]; then insinto /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/components doins mplayerplug-in.xpt fi
The mplayerplug-in.xpt is the file that tells Mozilla/Firefox about the javascript methods provided by the plugin. This is required file for a correct install.
Have the same problem. I added insinto /opt/netscape/plugins doins mplayerplug-in.xpt to the 2.66 ebuild. The .xpt file is generated and installed, but konqueror fails to use the plug-in. Also created a symbolic link thusly: ln -s /opt/netscape/plugins/mplayerplug-in.xpt /usr/lib/nsbrowser/plugins/mplayerplug-in.xpt
Ok, so it is only on my laptop that I have this problem. On my home box (both are x86 with 2.6.10-r6 kernel) the 2.66 ebuild not generating the .xpt file is a non-issue. That is, even without it konqueror finds and uses the mplayerplug-in, odd. Both konqueror configs search the same paths for plug-ins, both have java and java-script enabled. Dunno why the laptop build does not see the mplayerplug-in.
I solve this, making the follow: I'm usinging the ebuild: /usr/portage/net-www/mplayerplug-in/mplayerplug-in-2.80.ebuild Change the src_install by this new one: src_install() { exeinto /opt/netscape/plugins doexe mplayerplug-in.so || die "plugin failed" inst_plugin /opt/netscape/plugins/mplayerplug-in.so insinto /opt/netscape/plugins doins mplayerplug-in.xpt inst_plugin /opt/netscape/plugins/mplayerplug-in.xpt insinto /etc doins mplayerplug-in.conf dodoc ChangeLog INSTALL README TODO DOCS/tech/*.txt } This will copy and make the correct simbolic links in the right directory I hope help someone
Fixed in CVS in the 2.80 ebuild, thanks for the report!
