Hi,

http://www.lacapitale.com/en/about-us/to_family (Youtube integration with strange height and size only on Ipad)

http://www.lacapitale.com/en/individuals/insurances/ads (The playbar was really small on Ipad)

What we can do to correct this.

thanks

The second link is using 6.5, you need to update it to 6.8.

We update to 6.8 the player in our test environment and we have notice that the first problem is solved. But, this second problem with the playbar always here.

I think there must be something clashing in the html5 player’s css with your site’s css. I would try embedding the player on a blank page first to see if the issue still happens.

Ok i'll check.

And, do you have an idea for what this video can't be played?

Hi,

For : bc.. I would try embedding the player on a blank page first to see if the issue still happens

Object #2 : The size of the control bar on iPad.

Yes, still happens on a blank page, no css on it. Do you think that could concern the video size?

The controlbar of this video : http://www.lacapitale.com/fr/entreprises/assurances-collectives/viva-sante-petite-entreprise was correct but, this one http://www.lacapitale.com/en/individuals/insurances/ads not.

Video "Viva sante ..."
<ul>
<li>H264 - MPEG-4</li>
<li>680x376</li>
</ul>

Video "ads"
<ul>
<li>H264 - MPEG-4</li>
<li>1888x1062</li>
</ul>

Do you support multiple instance on the same page? On the switch to 6.8, a new problem appear. It seem that randomly, preview images show or not, from the second video and other after reload. Videos play normaly. I can't update it to live website until this set. Do you ever see this problem before?

Thanks

I don’t have a fix as this is not a known issue. Please put up a link.

Other things, it seem to be in IE 9 (64bits) only.

JW Player

No one should be using the 64-bit version of IE9. It's known to have all sorts of problems, on many, many websites.

Happily, IE9 usage (both 32- and 64-bit) is disappearing pretty quickly, largely because MS has switched to auto-updating IE.

You can view check this now, we update the player to 6.8.
http://www.lacapitale.com/en/individuals/insurances/ads

So problem appear in IE9 (64bits) on page with multiple instances of the players. And, it's normal that the image of the third video was black. But, you can see if the image here or not.

Reminder : <quote> It seem that randomly, preview images show or not, from the second video and other after reload. Videos play normaly.</quote>
