Is Self Hosted JWPlayer 6 require internet connection to play ?
I have downloaded self host jwplayer from this link https://account.jwplayer.com/#/account in section Download self-hosted player that redirects
me to this link https://account.jwplayer.com/static/download/jwplayer-6.8.zip.
Then I have follow all the instruction as stated in README.html to create a html file that use jwplayer self host video player.
I have downloaded jwplayer-6.8.zip and when I extract I get jwplayer folder that contains jwplayer.js.
Then I use jwplayer.js that is stored in my local folder and I use video file : video.mp4 in my local folder as written in html file below to
play the video.
My html that using jwplayer 6.8 is like this.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jwplayer/jwplayer.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="myElement">Loading the player...</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("myElement").setup({
file: "video.mp4"
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
I'm using Internet Explorer 9 and Google Chrome version 35
When I play the html with Active Internet Connection, the video can play.
But When I play the html without Internet Connection, it shows error description like below
"Could not load plugins: File not found"
I cannot see any error description like that in Troubleshooting guide in this url

My Question is does self hosted jwplayer really can be played without internet connection ?
Thanks,
William
