Streaming through self hosted player not working on mobile devices


Here is a link to a page with a video. None of the members of my website are able to play my videos on a mobile device.

I use S2Member and they had the same issue when they attempted to assist me.

How do I set to HTML5? Will that make it work on mobile devices? The file URLs are on amazon - since the video is playing on computers how are the urls missing?

Hello Ellen,

The video does not play on my browser, the setup block is missing a video url. What are you using to build the website? Do you have a web developer?

See screenshots below:

The site is WordPress - I am using S2Member as a membership site.

The videos are in an Amazon S3 console.

I am the web developer.

From what I’ve shown you in the screenshots above, why do you think the file urls are not available?

I think I need to make you a member of the site - the link to the JW player may be linked to s2member? As you can see from my video - they are working for members just not on the mobile devices. Is there anyway you can send me an email of a user name to ellen_mcdowell@cox.net ? I will give you a one day membership to check out the problem perhaps. It worked for the s2Member and they told me it looked like JW Player no longer supported mobile players.
