Live RTMP Stream - Resume from pause or disable

9 replies [Last post]
Reply

Hi there,

I have the latest JW Player working with Wowza streaming up a live RTMP stream. This is working very well.

I have a small problem in that if the live stream is paused, it will not resume once unpaused. You must stop the video and hit play again which is not ideal.

Is there a way of either disabling the pause feature entirely, or forcing the player to either resume or start playing the stream again?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I am looking for an answer to this as well?

I also think that if a live stream is paused, on resume it should start playing from the current stream. Failing that, disabling the pause feature would suffice.

I have the same issue. Driving me crazy... Don't believe it's a JWPlayer issue, however since this happens using a custom player AND flowplayer as well... so it must have something to do with the FMS...

So has someone got this solved already?

+1 for a fix for this problem, Flowplayer has a solution of changing the pause button to a stop via some extra code..

Not sure how this is done with JWPlayer, but I'd like to know since I bought JWplayer and would much rather use JWPlayer.

Flowplayer way:

onPause: function(clip) {
this.stop();
},
onResume: function(clip) {
this.play();
},

Has there been a solution? This is a serious issue...

Here's a link with a test video on top:

Problem exists on pretty much any modern Windows or Mac browser. When video is paused and resumed, it takes several minutes before it gives up and restarts the player with the splash image.

A bit of a problem because for live video streams, it gives the illusion that the video feed is down.

Works for me?
