can't play with VLC plugin

Hmmmn. Definitely 2.0.5 (also says 'twoflower', whatever that is.)

I'll just do a quick sanity check in case i'm being stupid again:

I open webif in ie9
click on 'browse media files'
click on an SD recording
window opens with media details including a play button
click on play button
play page appears with transport controls. I've doing nothing and using the play button.

nothing plays.

I suppose it's ok to use ie9?
 
IE9 is fine. There must be something else that's causing your problem. I can't duplicate it so I can't suggest a solution.
 
Should play on its own. Did you try another browser, i.e. Chrome which uses the same VLC ActiveX plugin? If it still doesn't work in Chrome then the problem must be with your install of VLC.
 
i've tried a couple of other browsers. i reinstalled vlc 2.05 including the mozilla plugin.

in ie9 i get a black window with a small vlc logo
in mozilla firefox i get an error that says a plugin is missing
in chrome i get a jigsaw icon and a plugin missing message.

I've tried vlc 2.04 and 2.05 and the latest version and selected all the plugins during install so i'm not quite sure why the browsers cant see the plugin. (all this was on windows 7)

any suggestions greatfully received....
