Force HTML5 Player

JW Player — Apr 04, 2014 08:57AM EDT

Hi all,

because my webserver does not allow streaming of videos, I want to use HTML5 built in pseudo streaming. However, the flash version of the player is loaded as default. How can I configure JWPlayer to use HTML5 in the first place?

Thanks a lot!

Bye,
Sven

Use the modes block and make HTML5 first :)

Hi again,

thanks for the link! It's working ;-) While testing I have some additional questions coming up:

1.) How can I enable again the HD plugin?
2.) How can I enbale skin support?
3.) How do I setup real "full screen" mode?

Thanks again!

Bye,
Sven
