Playlist in iOS does not show itemImage.png and messes up page flow

Change this reference:

"skin" : "../media/jw-skins/glow/glow.zip",

To:

"skin" : "../media/jw-skins/glow/glow.xml",

And make sure that the assets are all there.

I am not sure about the Simulator, I have used it before, but I have never tried clearing cache with it. Isn't it the same as clearing your history on a regular iPhone/iPad though?

Hi and thanks for the quick response.

Changing to glow.xml does not have an effect.

Yea, it is difficult to know about the cache. Using Safari with the user agent set to iPad, the layout works as expected.

Also, if I don't do:

$('#player').height(containerHeight);
$('#player').parent().height(containerHeight);
jwplayer('player').resize(566, containerHeight);

The playlist plays in the video space and shortens the height of the video for FF and IE.

I created a test page that shows the problem of the playlist without the resizing of jwplayer and its containers:

Maybe it has something to do with your jQuery call? What happens if you embed the player on a blank page, without jQuery?

Not sure what you are suggesting. The test page above does not call the resize and height functions. Do you mean the $(document).ready? (if so, no change)

What I mean is I want you to just embed the player in a static html page, just the player, so make sure that there are no other conflicts, and to see if the error still happens.

The Flash size (video plus playlist) error seems to be caused by an included CSS. I think this is a remnant from when we used the javascript api (why did my post to this forum about the JS api get deleted or is not in the list of topics?) which provided HTML to style rather than the understandably, extremely limited, flash playlist skin.

The other issues still remain.

Ah.., I see my post about javascript and playlists has been moved to JW Player/JavaScript Interaction:

http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/forums/jw-player/using-playlists/24833/is-there-any-way-to-use-...

but no response.

Did you try posting this in a static page like I asked?

ufff. are you reading my posts or just posting responses from a handbook?

Perhaps it is time to move to video js http://videojs.com/ or flowplayer http://flowplayer.org/

I don't see why posting that would be so hard...
