You may need to configure your secureToken as documented at https://support.jwplayer.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1430358-using-rtmp-streaming
Please also check with Wowza to see if this is required for their tokens.

var playerInstance = jwplayer("myElement");
playerInstance.setup({
	file: "rtmp://example.com/vod/mp4:myVideo.mp4",
	height: 360,
	width: 640
	image: "/assets/myVideo.jpg",
	rtmp: {
		securetoken: "Testif093n203a"
	}
});

Your best option at this point is to check with Wowza. We are not aware of any other configuration changes that need to be made in our player for secureTokens.

Have you tried with a cloud-hosted player or the self-hosted player from a JW Player account? I am not sure if the open source version of our player supports secure streaming, but I will check with our engineers and get back to you. You can also ask the engineers directing via GitHub.

I have try it with another way .

I have downloaded the source code for jw player from https://github.com/jwplayer/jwplayer#build-instructions

update my secure token in source code and try to compile but getting below error:

Warning: To compile ActionScript, you must set environment variable $AIR_HOME or $FLEX_HOME for this task to locate mxmlc. Used --force, continuing.

We do not support the GitHub versions of the player. My suggestion would be to use a cloud-hosted player from your JW Player account dashboard.

Please see our basic player embed document at http://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1406723-mp4-video-embed and our RTMP secure token code example at https://support.jwplayer.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1430358-using-rtmp-streaming for more details.
