SETUP WIZARD

Our Setup Wizard renders the code you need to implement a specific JW Player setup. It’s also a useful tool to experiment to see what's possible with the player. Roll over a variable to see its tooltip or check this page for more explanations. Many thanks to Lars Nyboe Andersen for creating the first version of this wizard and additional example setups.

1: Select an Example Setup

2: Change Your Flashvars

3: Preview Your Player

You need Flash Player 9 and a browser with javascript!

4: Copy Your Code*

Below is the embed code for this setup. If you use any JavaScripting, we recommend the swfobject 1.5 code.

<embed
  src="/jw/embed/player.swf"
  width="470"
  height="320"
  bgcolor="#ffffff"
  allowscriptaccess="always"
  allowfullscreen="true"
  flashvars="file=http://content.longtailvideo.com/videos/flvplayer.flv"
/>

Below is the swfobject 1.5 code for this setup. For blogs and sites like MySpace, use the embed code.

<script type='text/javascript' src='/embed/swfobject.js'></script>

  <div id='mediaspace'>This div will be replaced</div>

  <script type='text/javascript'>
  var s1 = new SWFObject('/jw/embed/player.swf','ply','470','320','9','#ffffff');
  s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
  s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
  s1.addParam('wmode','opaque');
  s1.addParam('flashvars','file=http://content.longtailvideo.com/videos/flvplayer.flv');
  s1.write('mediaspace');
</script>

*Please note: this example setup uses a player.swf (and, in some cases, a swfobject.js) that is hosted on our servers. You need to download your own copy of the JW Player (swfobject.js is included in the download) and place it on your own server -- then change the link(s) in this example so they point to the file(s) on your server.
