JW Player Plugin for WordPress Version 1.5.4
Current Player: JW Player 5.8.2011

code:
[jwplayer file="http://www.ms-films.co.uk/films/2011_comp.mp4" hd.file="http://www.ms-films.co.uk/films/2011_comp_HD.mp4" image=" http://www.ms-films.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/900x506_jwplayer_thumbnail_2011compilation... "]

1)No HTML5 SD/HD switch like you see with http://developer.longtailvideo.com/player/plugins/hd/test/modes.html Do I need extra code?
2)Desktop Flash is fine, Blog using a mobile theme for mobile devices and when viewed on iPhone, the page is blank without the JW player unless the following is set to NO.

Load jwplayer.js/swfobject.js in page head: Yes No Controls whether the plugin will insert the jwplayer.js or swfobject.js files into the head of every page. If set to No jwplayer.js or swfobject.js will only be included on pages where the jwplayer.js shortcode is used.

The Blog theme "ajax loading pages" settings also needs to be set to NO, for a page with JW Player to load

3) When viewed on iPhone and mobile theme, JW Player is not scaled to mobile theme reduced size. Thumbnail and videoplayer displays at full desktop resolution.

Hi Mark,

1) Try setting dock="true" in your shortcode.

2) I'm not sure why this would need to be set to NO. I could see AJAX loading possibly interfering with the player however.

3) Yes, this is something we're looking to improve with an upcoming release. The plugin will need a check to determine if it's in mobile mode and adjust the size accordingly.

Thanks.

Hi Cameron

Thanks for your reply!

Sorry, the code on that page has changed since posting here. I have revised the page back to the way it was.

1) dock="true" isn't overriding the plugin settings. Setting dock to "true" in the wordpress plugin settings is producing the dock buttons on the flash player for other plugins such as HD & share etc. Just doesnt sniff the SD/HD buttons with HTML5

2) AJAX page loading on or off doesn't make any difference

3) I have to set "Load jwplayer.js/swfobject.js in page head:" to NO for JW Player to display on iPhone.

On a separate note, I am really struggling with the Wordpress plugin and short code, most of the setup instructions on your site are for JWEmbedder or SWFObject and there is a lack of Wordpress shortcode equivalent info for plugins. I am currently trying to configure the Flow plugin and a playlist, will raise a separate thread. Can you suggest any tips?

Thanks

Looks like I just missed the page again. I apologize for that. We have a lot going on with the start of the new year.

Are you trying to configure the plugin in the shortcode or using the Custom Player wizard in the admin section?

Thanks.
