<embed src="http://jwplayer.mediaserve.com/player.swf" height="360" width="640" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" autostart="true" flashvars="&bandwidth=640&controlbar=over&file=220&mute=true&plugins=viral-2d&streamer=rtmp://208.100.14.27/live"/>

You can do a auto reconnect with our new player and our JS API, but your code is for our legacy player and not using jwplayer.js, so this will not be supported.

Add this code under your player:

jwplayer().onError(function(){
jwplayer().load({file:“http://content.jwplatform.com/videos/7RtXk3vl-52qL9xLP.mp4”,image:“http://content.jwplatform.com/thumbs/7RtXk3vl-480.jpg”});
jwplayer().play();
});
jwplayer().onComplete(function(){
window.location = window.location.href;
});
jwplayer().onBuffer(function(){
theTimeout = setTimeout(function(){
jwplayer().load({file:“http://content.jwplatform.com/videos/7RtXk3vl-52qL9xLP.mp4”,image:“http://content.jwplatform.com/thumbs/7RtXk3vl-480.jpg”});
jwplayer().play();
},5000);
});
jwplayer().onPlay(function(){
clearTimeout(theTimeout);
});

Hi Ethan,

It works in Internet Explorer and Chrome but doesn/ t work in iOS and Android. Is there any solution?

Thanks!

Daniel
