Getting error in jwplayer 8 "Error loading media: File could not be played".
This usually means you are trying to load a file in a nonsupported format in JW Player. A common case is the loading of a .wmv video, or a .mov video that doesn’t use the H264 video codec. See Supported Media Formats for the list of formats the player supports. JW8 does not support YouTube or RTMP formats.
