In the DataMiner 10.0.10+ versions, there is a known issue with VLC plugin where it can only be used with IE browser. VLC Visio Links in dataminer X - DataMiner Dojo provides a workaround so that VLC plugins can be used in the Visio shapes.
However with the recent announcement from Microsoft, The future of Internet Explorer on Windows 10 is in Microsoft Edge | Windows Experience Blog, IE will be out of support completely by June 15th, 2022. So what is the future and path forward for VLC plugin in the DataMiner?
I guess there will be lots of customer which don't have HLS streams, but tons of transport streams floating around the house. They will not be happy to have to convert all the streams. It will still take some time until all have changed to use DASH and HLS for all streams.
