Simple JW Player with playlist

3 replies [Last post]

Hello

I am trying to put together a simple JW Player with a playlist as per whats on http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/tutorials/Playlist-Tutorial

After many attempts to do this I still can't seem to get it to work or understand the tutorial fully.

Is there any simple example code I can use and adapt out there?

Many thanks

I would suggest that you search the JW Player Forum.

It has been posted many times already!

There does seem to be lack of playlist examples for us non xml types.

Example for video: I just need a Title, flv/mp4 file location, thumbnail loaction

so I can use that with the flow plugin, but I can't get it to work.

xml file is in the root an all media is in the video directory below it:

<playlist version=’1′>

<trackList>

<track>
<title>Elyse</title>
<location>
video/elyse_social.flv
</location>
<image>
video/elyse_social.jpg
</image>
</track>

<track>
<title>Cristina</title>
<location>
video/cristina_tradition.mp4.flv
</location>
<image>
video/cristinatraditon.jpg
</image>
</track>

</trackList>
</playlist>

 
The location of the XML playlist file has absolutely nothing to do with the location of media or data files that are referenced in the playlist file.

All media and data files except FLV files are referenced relative to the location of the HTML document that the Flash content is embedded in.

FLV files are referenced relative to the location of the Flash movie.

Absolute references or full URIs start in the root of your web server.
