JW PLAYER 4 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.

<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='470' height='320' id='single1' name='single1'>
<param name='movie' value='http://player.longtailvideo.com/player4.6.swf'>
<param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
<param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
<param name='wmode' value='transparent'>
<param name='flashvars' value='file=http://content.longtailvideo.com/videos/flvplayer.flv'>
<embed
  id='single2'
  name='single2'
  src='http://player.longtailvideo.com/player4.6.swf'
  width='470'
  height='320'
  bgcolor='#000000'
  allowscriptaccess='always'
  allowfullscreen='true'
  flashvars='file=http://content.longtailvideo.com/videos/flvplayer.flv'
/>
</object>

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='swfobject.js'></script>

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

<script type='text/javascript'>
  var so = new SWFObject('http://player.longtailvideo.com/player4.6.swf','ply','470','320','9','#000000');
  so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
  so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
  so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
  so.addVariable('file','http://content.longtailvideo.com/videos/flvplayer.flv');
  so.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.
