RTMP - Can't change default bufferlength value


I've just downloaded JWPLAYER7. I've been using the previous version to provide live webcam video streming via rtmp and I got delays below 0.5s but after installing version no.7 my delay is 3 seconds long. I think that this may be due to the default rtmp bufferlength value not being overriden by my code:

rtmp: {
bufferlength: 0.1
}

What should I do to get bufferlength value equal 0.1?

I am not familiar with any changes to the rtmp: {} in JW 7, so I will need to escalate this to our engineers. I will be sure to update you when I hear back from them.

This is an issue that needs to be updated in JW 7 in order for bufferlength to work. As an alternative, we suggest you consider an HLS stream as our player can play HLS everywhere RTMP can play, but you also get support for mobile devices with HLS which RTMP does not support. And new in JW 7, you can also use DASH.

Hi Todd,

I am having this issue as well. Do we have an estimate on this fix? Currently I am using 7.0.1.

Thank you.
