title: Using vlc npapi plugin in chrome in linux
body: <p>I want to use vlc web plugin on chrome in linux but this post says that chrome has stopped supporting npapi plugins. <a href="https://askubuntu.com/questions/487399/install-vlc-plugin-on-chrome">https://askubuntu.com/questions/487399/install-vlc-plugin-on-chrome</a> </p>
  
  <p>I am using vlc plugin in chrome on windows 7 and it works fine. I can see vlc web plugins when I do about://plugins.
  But in Ubuntu 14.10, I cannot use vlc web plugin in chrome. I am able to use it on firefox, so its installed.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Is it true that chrome has taken down the support for npapi plugins</li>
  <li>If yes, why I am still able to use it on windows but not on linux</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Any help ?</p>
