Self-hosted player with thumbnails

Hello,
I am trying to set up JW player 6 with thumbnail preview. Like this:

jwplayer('player').setup({
playlist: [{
file: "1.mp4",
autostart: true,
width: 960,
height: 720,
tracks: [{
file: "1.mp4.vtt",
kind: "thumbnails"
}]
}]
});

the thumbnails work but the size and autostart parameter don't. It's just a very small player window. I couldn't wind any better instruction how to do this. Can you help?

Thanks & best regards!

Thanks Ethan. I found a solution in the meantime. It works when moving the size and autostart parameter after the playlist:
jwplayer('player').setup({
playlist: [{
file: "video.mp4",
image: "video_First_Frame.png",
tracks: [{
file: "video.mp4.vtt",
kind: "thumbnails"
}]
}],
autostart: true,
width: 800,
height: 600,
});
