size of jwplayer
Why is the size of the JWPlayer 7 so much bigger - is there a lighter version of the player available? 222KB from the 6 version which was 159KB

Thanks for your feedback. I can’t speak to the exact reasons why JW 7 is 63KB larger than JW 6, but I can tell you that it is most likely because we continue to add functionality and improvements to the player.
