JW Player implementation


I'm trying to implement JW player into my web page to view videos publishing through WowZa streaming engine. If I buy license version of JW Player do I need to setup and compile the files as describe in following URL. Or it is just for free versions.

https://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?51-How-to-add-SecureToken-protection-to-JW-Player

How can I integrate Wowza security token into the JW player when I embed it into my web page?

Please help.

Thanks

Hi there,

The use of a Wowza secure token with a RTMP stream should work with a Free account. You can see an example of how to implement the secure token on the bottom of our Using RTMP Streaming support article.

Thank you.

Hi there,

I have hidden your last post from this forum thread because it contained your license key. We will never need to know your license key and it should be kept private.

As for your issue, I would really need to see a live reproduction page with your setup and RTMP stream embedded as I am not having any issues playing RTMP streams in Firefox, such as on this test page and your I am not seeing any obvious issues with the code you supplied.

One thing you may want to also check is to see if the “Shockwave Flash” plugin is set to “Always Activate” on the plugins section of the Add-ons settings in Firefox.

Thank you.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your reply. I manged to run my video in all browsers after disabled the windows firewall running in my PC.

Now videos can play for following two options configured in Wowza Streaming Engine.

Protect RTMP protocol using TEA (SecureToken version 1)
Do NOT use SecureToken

But when I configured security token under option 3 which is "Protect all protocols using hash (SecureToken version 2)", my videos are not playing for the following code sample. but it works for option 2 which is "Protect RTMP protocol using TEA (SecureToken version 1)". Please help;

<script>
//Code for rtmp
jwplayer("player").setup({
file: "rtmp://192.168.43.121:1935/vod/mp4:sample.mp4",
height: 360,
width: 640,
rtmp: {
bufferlength: 0.1,
securetoken: "-------",
}
});
</script>

Hi Alex,

One thing to add my previous post;

If I select check box for "Use TEA for RTMP token security " under option 3 which is "Protect all protocols using hash (SecureToken version 2)", then it's working.

Is there any way to run videos by using RTMP without selecting check box for "Use TEA for RTMP token security " under option 3.

Thanks.

Hi Harshana,

We are not familiar with the ins and outs of Wowza’s platform so I would recommend contacting Wowza’s support for information on how best to set up your secure token settings and what each means for compatibility with our player.

Thank you.
