Hi Rafël,

forgive me if I misunderstood this, but I think you are setting up this
whole chunk of html to be translated.

the user-visible bits can certainly benefit from translation, but the
comment
<!-- VLC_PASSWORD_NOT_SET -->

should definitely not be translated. This is designed to be a
machine-readable tag so that remote control apps can readily tell what is
going on.

cheers,

Rob
