Description: Purpose: * Displays contextual information about the currently playing media * Adapted from similar scripts by rsyh93, Jean-Philippe Andre and ale5000
Status: * MC has only been tested in Windows and Linux so far - Let me know whether it works on other operating systems * Only a few local files and remote streams have been tried
Issues: * There's some unwanted crap in with the topic information - Wikipedia keeps changing its webpage code every few weeks - I will update MC's filters whenever I see this happening * The image shown sometimes isn't related to the context - Google Images sometimes returns totally irrelevant results
Other: * If you encounter other problems, please provide detailed descriptions * When the above VLC bugs are fixed, I'll unlock/implement more features
Thanks for ur kindness but still can't download even with IE and chrome
because systematically when i click download link it brings me to this adress: http://addons.videolan.org/CONTENT/content-files/143241-Media-Context.lua

Sorry Xavion I did not notice this : - when the file appears click on the menu file > save as... of your browser
in the instructions for installation. So everything works well. Thank you very much !

When clicking on media context under view while video is playing i get a message saying Couldn't determine new media context yet
This means the video is missing metadata and the filename format wasn't recognised either.
Thanks for your post. Visit us at http://armadabeauty.com/

The VLC extension paths for the three main platforms are listed in this forum message: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=71535#p236567

Both download locations are working for me right now. Maybe you should try again using Internet Explorer this time.
