playing 3rd party source videos


Dear Sirs,
We would like to know, if we get a subscription plan to be able to stream videos on self-hosted servers (including Ads), will it be possible for us to stream videos hosted on third party servers like googlevideo.com, and etc ?
The reason we are asking is - we've checked the free version of the jwplayer and we were not able to stream video from, for example, with a direct link from googlevideo.com/videoplayback?.... (not a public link, but a direct "temporary" link on googlevideo.com), but there are numbers of sites that can do it, using the jwplayer also

Please reply.

Hi,

I would be glad to assist you. Please note though that for you to be able to play ads you must have an ads entitled JW Player account. I would be happy to put you in touch with one of our sales people who can explore that with you.

With regards to self hosted content, here is a helpful document that will show you how to integrate your own CMS hosted content:

Hello,
once again, we would like to know what will be the price for the jw player license for our aims:
we need to have license of JW player to stream a "self-hosted" content (located, for example, on 3rd party links like googlevideo.com/videoplayback?...) with ability to use VAST/VPAID Ads on the videos being streamed.

what license do we need to obtain ? it like your "Platinum with Ads" packet, but for self-hosted content (the price for this type is not indicated)

Thank you and waiting for your reply.
