Passing custom parameters to Wowza with JW Player 6
We have some videos that are protected with a token based authentication on our Wowza server - this works well with JW Player 5, but attempts to use this with JW Player 6 fail. I have some test URLs:
JW Player 5 with authentication token (works):
http://148.85.1.57/videotest/jwp5_protect.php
JW Player 6 without authentication token in unprotected app (works):
http://148.85.1.57/videotest/jwp6_open.php
JW Player 6 with authetication token (doesn't work):
http://148.85.1.57/videotest/jwp6_protect.php
usually what we need to do is to pass the authentication token as a URL parameter, but clearly I'm making some mistake here. What is the proper way to pass URL parameters to the server using JW Player 6?
