This plugin is broken. Does not work.

Due to changes in VLC's lua API, this project is deprecated and not supported anymore for VLC 2.1.* and higher! If you want the same functionality, go to nurupo's plugin page.

Introduction

This extension allow playing/pausing videos by clicking on a screen. Similar to youtube videos behaviour.

Download

From project on github or videolan addons page

Installation

To install, drop "clickpause.lua" into the VLC extensions directory. The extensions directories are located at:

  • OS X systemwide: /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/extensions/
  • OS X current user: ~/Library/Application Support/org.videolan.vlc/lua/extensions/
  • Linux systemwide: depends upon distro
  • Linux current user: ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/
  • Windows systemwide: %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions\
  • Windows current user: %APPDATA%\vlc\lua\extensions\

This extension was tested and sound working at following configurations:

  • VLC: 2.0.1; OS: Windows XP
  • VLC: 2.0.5; OS: Linux

But it doesn't depend on specific things, and highly probably would work on other configurations.

Usage

In "View" menu tick "Click screen to Play/Pause". Enjoy!

Know Bugs

  • You need to tick it every time you open VLC. This is a limitation of VLC lua api.
