onReady event fired multiple times

If you render in flash mode, and then do anything with the DOM surrounding the player which causes a re-paint (such as moving the player container using JavaScript and absolute positioning, or simply hiding and showing it), then the onReady function is called again - each time.

Hey James,

I can definitely pass this over to the devs. Do you have an example that we can look at?

Sure. Go to this page:

http://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1430358-using-rtmp-streaming

Then using the console in chrome (for example), attach the following onReady listener:

jwplayer().onReady(function(){alert('on ready');})

Then use the following in the console to modify the display style:

jwplayer().container.style.display='none'

and

jwplayer().container.style.display='block'

You'll see the alert is fired each time the player is made visible.

This occurs in both Chrome & FF. In Chrome it also occurs when you modify the "position" style in a way which the player is caused to move.
