Live Broadcast Text Is Showing At The Begining


Hi,

In my app, I am streaming video from my server. But when the page loads, JWPlayer is showing 'Live Broadcast' at the place where seek control. Instead of seek control, it is showing live broadcast text. This happens when the player is in auto play = true mode. After a couple of seconds, the player controls comes and this text vanishes. Is there a way to remove 'Live Broadcast' text?

I am using Android SDK of JWPlayer. I can share my code if needed. But first of all, I would like to know if this is the behavior of the player. I tried the sample codes given in the website and in them also, I could see live broadcast text. Kindly help at the earliest as this is kind of urgent for my client.
