How to configure Android fallback to RTSP in JW 6 for Wordpress?


Hi,

Currently in my site's workpress, I have configured the JW player to provide two file sources for RTMP streaming and HTML5 fallback using the following shortcode:

[jwplayer sources="{ file:'rtmp://203.175.170.33:1935/live/Stream1' },{ file:'http://203.175.170.33:1935/live/Stream1/playlist.m3u8' }"]

With the shortcode, I am able to view the stream on desktop browsers and iOS devices. However I am unable to view the stream on Android devices. I have checked your website's support corner and I understand that I can do RTSP fallback to allow Android devices to view the stream? How do I configure that in JW 6 for wordpress? What's the shortcode to use?

I'm currently using JW 6.8 and the stream's coming from Wowza Streaming Engine 4.0.3.

The player does not actually support RTSP, so the best way to do this would be to make an <a> link to the RTSP file, outside of your JW Player setup.
