RSS Feed with difference source types


I am attempting to create a playlist with videos from my local server as well as from YouTube. I realized I would have to use the RSS feed for this, and have created one. The issue is that if I put the locally-hosted video first on the RSS, the YouTube video does not show up.

If I reverse them, it works fine. What is up with this? Here is the RSS with the YouTube video listed first, which will not work for me.

<rss version="2.0" xmlns:jwplayer = "http://rss.jwpcdn.com/">
<channel>
<item>
<title>Video 1</title>
<description>Second video</description>
<jwplayer:image>mainbp.jpg</jwplayer:image>
<jwplayer:source file= "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKEP4HyKlLk"/>
</item>
<item>
<title>VIDEO 2</title>
<description>THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO</description>
<jwplayer:image>maersk_videoBP.jpg</jwplayer:image>
<jwplayer:source file= "castellano.mp4" />
</item>
</channel>
</rss>

Here is my markup:
<!-- begin jw player -->
<div id="myElement">All Hands video player goes here</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jwplayer/jwplayer.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">jwplayer.key="Z6ZZ2qZLCKtWiiSx/kGEY94Ro7kp3+/ymsxvsw==";</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("myElement").setup({
playlist: "myPlaylist.rss",


flashplayer: "jwplayer/player.swf",

listbar:{
position:"bottom",
display:"basic"
},
width: "100%",
aspectratio: "16:9",
sharing: {}

});
</script>
<!-- end jw player -->
</div>

Thanks!

Do you have a link to where this is running? What version of the player are you using? 6.9 should be used for full YouTube support in HTML5 and in playlists.

We are using 6.8. Unfortunately I can't share a link because it is on a development server for the US Navy. However, I will try it with 6.9 and see how that works.

Ok, let me know if that works.
