Hi

How can I pass username and password in URL to access file protected by HTTP Basic Authentication?
like http://username:password@server.com/myfile.mp4

We used flowplayer before and didn't have such problems.

Right now, in JWPlayer we try like this:

jwplayer('player').setup({
'width': '800',
'height': '471',

sources: [{
file: "http://username:password@server.com/myfile.mp4"
}],


but it doesn't work, we got password mismatch in HTTP server log.

Regards
