HTML links to videos?

Greg0986 · 29 May 2012 at 18:59

I have made a small website for home that has information for all my movies and tv shows etc that I have backed up. Is there any way to create a link that opens the video? I want to be able to click the link and then VLC or MPC-HC opens with the selected video playing.

I know this is a long shot but worth a try XD

Cheers!

Ah. Strange, it threw up an error message when I tried that. I had to moves the html folder to the drive that the file was on in order for it to work. How do I do it when the files are on multiple drives?

Ah, I got it working

. Is there anyway I could batch add files? I have a lot (more than 2000) that I would like to add.

Are they all in the same directory, or scattered about everywhere?

You could use javascript to list all the files in a directory (and subdirectories) that could automatically generate a link to the file

I've got them all in one directory but in their own subdirectory.
