Compatibility Problems with JW Player
Ok so after a day on this am going nuts. I tested jwplayer, worked great for me in every platform I had so I purchased a 10 site license today. Set up test videos and sent to client. Complaints started pouring in.
1) slow to load in Chrome
2) in IE9 we get audio but no video
3) Firefox it starts and stops like its buffering (I blame their internet or host)
personally it works in Chrome, IE10, IE9, iOS 6.1.3 and Firefox perfectly for me so am at my wits end.
Can anyone test these linsk and provide feedback on playability along with your browser version?
Any ideas on what the problem is?
I used handbrake to encode, using the ipad settings as per the tutorial on this site.
Code on page is:
bc.. <div id="myElement">Loading the player...</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("myElement").setup({
file: "/media/negotiations.mp4",
primary: "flash",
image: "/media/walter.png",
width: 320,
height: 480,
controlbar: "bottom",
icons: false,
"controlbar.idlehide": true,
});
</script>
I have tried using .mp4s and .m4vs. I added this to our .htaccess file as the files were coming back as content/plain which i read was an IE issue:
AddType video/x-m4v .m4v
AddType video/x-mp4 .mp4
