title: Does WPF WebBrowser support VLC ActiveX?
body: <p>What I need is to open <strong>ANY</strong> Web page that has implemented <code>VLC ActiveX under WPF WebBrowser.</code></p>
  
  <p>I just did a VERY simple page that works perfect under IE9/10.</p>
  
  <p>But when I open it there is no any VLC :(</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
      &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /&gt;
      &lt;meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" /&gt;

      &lt;title&gt;&lt;/title&gt;
  
   &lt;/head&gt;

          &lt;param name="AutoPlay" value="False" /&gt;
      &lt;/object&gt;

  <p>Like an alternative to test try to open <a href="http://www.vlc.eu.pn/index.php" rel="nofollow">this</a> page under <code>WPF WebBrowser</code> and <strong>NOTHING</strong> happens.</p>
  
  <p><em>Any clue brothers and sisters?</em></p>
  
  <p><em>P.S. <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/aa970906(v=vs.100).aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/aa970906(v=vs.100).aspx</a>  doesn't help...</em></p>
  
  <p>P.S. #2  I just tested <a href="http://www.vlc.eu.pn/index.php" rel="nofollow">this</a> page  and also my page with WinForms WebBrowser control and it is not working :(  Does it mean that MS webBrowser control doesn't support ActiveX at all or VLC ActiveX control is limited somehow?</p>
