Doesn't play video (Just black window)


Hello.

When I try to play by jwplayer specific m3u8 source i just have black window of player and nothing video and audio comes out. Just: http://screenshot.su/show.php?img=3b51b96d353958dc0ab698fb85a63a48.jpg

At the same time if I put the same video source to vlc player (desktop application) everything works. What it can be? Maybe jwplayer doesn't support some codecs?

The problem only in Google Chrome and
with disable-accelerated-video-decode in Google Settings.

It's not a good idea to ask users check this setting and change. How it's possible to resolve this problem in JWPlayer?

Does the first example on this page work in Chrome?

Works for me, without having to change anything in the Chrome settings.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting the support team. It seems you may have a specific setup. Does the m3u8 work in a basic embed:

<html> <head>

<script src="http://p.jwpcdn.com/6/12/jwplayer.js"></script>

</head> <body> <center> <div id="myVideo">Loading Your Player…</div>

<script> jwplayer.key="YOUR LICENSE HERE"; jwplayer("myVideo").setup({ file:'YOUR M3U*', height: '281', width: '500', }); </script>

</center> </body> </html>

Um, you might want to use a valid DOCTYPE, and not use a deprecated tag like <center>. And not put integers in quotes (like 281 and 500), and not put a trailing comma after the last setup attribute (which screws up some browsers).

Just sayin'.
