I've been following the example here:
http://home5.inet.tele.dk/nyboe/flash/mediaplayer4/JW_API_xmpl_5-2-4-0.html#
And it seems to work with versions 4.2 and 4.3, but when I switch to 4.4, I get "No valid filetypes found in this playlist." The only difference between my tests is changing the player.swf version files.
Is there a different variable or additional variable I need to add for 4.4 to work?
Thank you for the response. I tried removing the type and still not having any success. Tried with both .flv and .mp4.
It seems like it's not parsing the array correctly. If I send it the first element of the array, it works correctly. i'll try to snag the latest build from the repository, so if it's something that may have been corrected.
This works for me:

Ah... seems to be working now with 4.4.205. Thank you. Was on 4.4.174...
where to download version 4.4.205?
@poobalan - all old versions can be found here - http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/browser/tags
If your file URI ends in a recognized media file extension, you don't need the type flashvar.
With the v4.4.x players, using type when there is a recognized media file extension seems to break things.
So, remove this from each track:
type:"video"Be sure that you remove the comma from the preceding line so the array is valid.
