The vlc:// doesn't work anymore. Only on iOS and early Android versions.

It needs to match the intent:// format.

https://developer.chrome.com/multidevice/android/intents

But I can't work out the action category parts etc.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,
I?m a web developer. I?d like to be able to open links directly in VLC from a website. I can understand roughly how this works but I can?t get the syntax.
From what I can see VLC for Android should support intents.
And from what I can see on Google?s pages, is that the Browser can open intents from URLs in an anchor tag.
I?ve been trying for a few hours now to just open a http stream but can?t get it to open VLC.
Could someone be extremely kind and write an example url that I would need to put in to a the href of an <a> tag to open a simple mp3 stream?
Once I have the format right I can create my own from there.
Thanks very much,
DMx

I had an earlier version of rinsewind on this machine and it was working.
The current version is broken. After the dbus complaints about not
finding a $DISPLAY set one of the messages that comes back is listening on
host console and no stream can be played any longer. I have adjusted
pulseaudio to autospawn on startup and that just cleared the complaints
about pulseaudio refusing a connection to the server but didn't help any
further. I've tried this with three different sites that all used to work
with earlier rinsewind version. Now I'm going to replace the archlinux
disk with a debian disk the debian hasn't been updated in the last few
weeks and see if I can get these same three sites playing using debian.
If I can't, they're probably all down.

Does vlc need any plugins to play winamp type streams .pls? One or more
of these may not necessarily have been installed on archlinux. Pacman
isn't aptitude.
