Possible to self-host player with all player files self-contained?

I've downloaded the latest JWPlayer 8.05 as a self-contained player, and I'm trying to make a touch-screen kiosk system that is all self-contained (with locally-stored videos) for playback.

All is well if I have an internet connection, but in this case I need this to work without an internet connection as all media files are on the internal network.

It seems that it's impossible to make JWPlayer work 100% self-hosted and self-contained. It always wants to download jspsrv.js and the controls.html5 js file directly from the JWPlayer cdn.

Can someone please tell me if this is possible to accomplish with JWPlayer?

You should be able to set a base path for the contents of the self-hosted .zip file in your player.setup(). See below

playerInstance.setup({
    file: "MediumVideo.mp4",
   	base: "//folderthatishostingtheplayer",
