This is a template update that corrects an issue with the vSlider3 theme for Gallery2.

In gallery2 using WPG2.x and Rui's vSlider3 for WPG2 (not the standard vslider theme), when playing media files using certain browsers the media file was presented as a file and as a playback item in the media player. This causes a download of the media item in addition to playback in the media player which is annoying to say the least.

vSlider3 is a theme that works with it's counterpart for Wordpress in WPG2+
Theme(s) are available at http://irui.ac/cool-stuff/
You need both the gallery and the wordpress theme to make this work.

See the fix in action and test browser playback here: http://home.trbailey.net/rui

The update and instructions are available here: http://home.trbailey.net/vs3
[NOTE*]The patch is posted here as a courtesy and may not be available in a few weeks.
I have very limited outbound bandwidth (640Kbps) so hosting files is an uncommon thing for me.
But it's worth it in this case and Rui seems really busy.

View either reade.txt or READTHIS and follow the instructions.

Thanks for this, I am not sure what has happened to Rui, his vslider theme is very popular so I hope he is ok..

He was about a week ago when we worked this out and tested it.
Since he hasn't posted it and seems busy with life and the next release, I decided to share.
