Change the watermark logo for all vidoes?

I've purchased the licensed copy (5.7), installed it, the JW Player watermark is gone. Now I want to add our logo, link, etc in where the JW Player one used to be. I'm using the following syntax to embed my videos:
bc.. <div id="JWcontainer">Loading the player ...</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("JWcontainer").setup({
flashplayer: "/multimedia/JWplayer/player.swf",
file: "/multimedia/file1.mp4",
image: "/images/file1.jpg",
height: 272,
width: 408
});
</script>


How do I add the logo in? I would like to do this in one place so it updates all my videos all over the site. Is there a way to do that? Or does it have to be done with every video embed?

@e

add the following to your code above.
for example; *you would have to change the parameters to suit your needs*

bc.. logo:
{
file: 'your path and logo file',
hide: 'true',
over: '1',
out: '1',
timeout: '7',
position:'top-left',
margin: '10'
},

Explained here in our docs – http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/jw-player-for-flash-v5/12536/configuration-options#logo

But both of those codes are at each video embed level right? I would like to do it globally one time and not have to find and update all my videos. Is there a way to do this globally - to the main file or something?

You can do this with a config.xml file.

Here is a sample config.xml – http://www.longtailvideo.com/jw/upload/config.xml, you can add logo variables there

@ethan
You can have a different config for every video? Where do you put the config in the jwplayer setup javascript? What parameter takes that file?

A little help please. I tried this based on what I'd read in the configuration options and what's been posted here, but nothing shows up. What could I be missing or improperly writing?


<div id="Container1">Loading the player ...</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("Container1").setup({
flashplayer: "player.swf",
file: "BASoVid.mp4",
image: "1stimage.jpg",
height: 480,
width: 640,
logo:
{
file: 'BASo logo.png',
hide: 'false',
position: 'bottom right',
margin: '10'
}

});
</script>

Somehow the posting stripped the spacing that I used when posting. I have the spacing just as written above by Ethan.

Chances are, you are using the free player, if the logo is not showing up.

Thanks for the fast answers. I actually figured out that for some reason it works online but when I do it locally on my computer, the logo doesn't show up. The same goes for the HD plugins. Perhaps the plugins just work over the internet and not when just done on the computer as a test.

Here is a link to a test page I'm working on. I'm testing a few different things, but for this very phase I'm in, The logo and HD plugin are what I was after and both seem to work when I take a look at them online now so that's perfect.

btw, any feedback on my page would be more than welcome.

Any idea of a place where I could find some good info on the best parameters to use for my high quality videos? The HD video I have up right now to be fetched when the toggle is pressed seems to take some time to load through even on my computer and I'm running on a cable modem with 6 gbs of RAM and about 80% of my PC space unused.

Is there a way to eliminate the start and stop (streaming) style of loading that it does now and somehow pre-load the video so that it just runs through from beginning to end without stopping?

btw, the HD is only 17secs to from that point on I understand why it's freezing. My question pertains to the pauses before the 17sec mark

I wonder what the bitrate is as a too high of a bitrate can yield the results seen.
