This was my source for the compiled code, which has the 'strange' behaviour. May I suggest to you to get in touch with somebody from the VLC web plugin dev. Wouldn't it make more sense if VLC patched their plugin to support the proper mime-types?Īs I'm not a programmer, nor involved with VLC, their plugins, whatsoever. Granted we have at least one (the latter) right (or so I hope, as of commit c730150), but it seems there is a strong favor in the standard towards the content-type too.

m3u playlists not properly identified by EITHER content-type ('application/' or 'audio/mpegurl') OR file extension (.m3u or. As specified here:, clients should REFUSE. However I'd like to make the following remark: just reverting for compatibility's sake seems like cutting corners/taking the easy way. This would imply the VLC plugin supports the mime-type though, and as it seems to be 'video/mp2t', the VLC plugin lacks that one too. Wouldn't it make more sense if VLC patched their plugin to support the proper mime-types? TVHeadend has more clients to serve than just the VLC plugin, even though they are a major party.Īn alternative solution could be to change the play button not to link to a playlist, but to the stream directly. Both of our problems are probably solved by this latest patch, although I won't know until I can get my hands on a new build for my Synology NAS from. I'm sorry that my request caused incompatibilities with VLC.
