Does JWPlayer 7 support custom plugins ?


Is it possible to create our own plugin for JWPlayer 7 adding extra features such as a "Playback speed button" allowing to play the media at 1x, 1,5x or 2x ?
If it is possible, where can I find a guide or an example of custom plugin to get me started ?

Thank you for your replies.

We have built-in speed controls for HTML5 compatible formats. Add playbackRateControls: true, to your player.setup(. Outside of that, we currently don’t have third-party plugin support. If you want to build functionality that currently does not exist you would need to use our JavaScript API.

_playbackRateControls_ is not shown on android devices!

Works perfectly on desktops and IOS, not Android. How come?

Are your videos HLS or MP4?

Anyway, I don't see how this would interfere

Check out the release notes for 7.12 = > https://developer.jwplayer.com/jw-player/docs/developer-guide/release_notes/release_notes_7/ “Note that this is not supported in Flash or Android Chrome with HLS streams.”

I’m able to get it to work in Android with MP4 – do you have a test page? What device/OS are you running?
