responsive Player with Playlist on mobile


I use a responsive jwplayer 6 with javascript embedding from jwplayer.com "PLAYER => MANAGE"

When I want to play a playlist and resize my page to ~400 px the playlist overlays the video. How can I disable the display of the playlist? Or is it possible to hide the playlist if the side isn wide enough?

Best regards
Philipp

We do not have built-in functionality for hiding the playlist based on the width of the player in JW6, but you can potentially detect the width of the device in Javascript before our player loads. It would then be possible to use a different setup() call if the width was not wide enough.

You could also upgrade to JW7 because JW7 uses a visual playlist in the control bar so you do not need to worry about the playlist being outside the player. Please see https://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1428529 for more details.

The problem is, that the setup call is build from the platform so we cannot interact with it. we just include the .js file which is hostet on the platform and contains the setup call

Sounds like you might need to use a separate player that does not use the built-in playlist.
