Branding Logo Click

Hello,

How can I make the Branding Logo so that when the user clicks on the logo, the link will open in a New Tab or a New Window in the browser ?

If the feature doesn't exist in JWPlayer, is there any work around ?

Thanks.

Basically this is not possible with JW as it stands.

You can produce this functionality relativity easily using my Tatami for Online Video configuration tool by adding an overlay.

I've created a snapshot to demonstrate this:

Hello,

My name is Randy and I am from the JW Player Support team. You can perform a lot of customization with the player (including click features) with our branding options.:

Setting the Logo

A dedicated options block, called logo, is available for configuring the logo. It has the following properties:

SAMPLE CODE

jwplayer(“myElement”).setup({
file: “/assets/myVideo.mp4”,
height: 360,
image: “/assets/myVideo.jpg”,
logo: {
file: ‘/assets/myLogo.png’,
link: ‘http://example.com’
},
width: 640
});
-—————-
file
Location of an external JPG, PNG or GIF image to be used as watermark (e.g. /assets/logo.png). We recommend using 24 bit PNG images with transparency, since they blend nicely with the video.
hide
By default (false), the logo remains visible all the time. When this option is set to true, the logo will automatically show and hide along with the other player controls.
link
HTTP URL to jump to when the watermark image is clicked (e.g. http://example.com/). If it is not set, a click on the watermark does nothing in particular.
margin
The distance of the logo from the edges of the display. The default is 8 pixels.
position
This sets the corner in which to display the watermark. It can be top-right (the default), top-left, bottom-right or bottom-left. Note the default position is preferred, since the logo won’t interfere with the controlbar, captions, overlay ads and dock buttons.

I think the question was specifically about launching the link in a new tab or new window...
