JWPlayer 5.10 Configuration Troubles


Hi, I'm upgrading my JWPlayer 5.5 to 5.10 for the HTML5 fallback feature but cannot get it to work correctly.

On 5.5, I have an flv file streaming from an rtmp server (no problem). I have HTML5 video working correctly by itself (no problem). But when using 5.10, I cannot get the flash file to play at all and no fallback to HTML5.

The way I really want it to work is to stream a flv file from the rtmp server and fall back to an HTML5 mp4 file. Possible?

The code:
<video id="media" autoplay width="320" height="240" src="http://e-spot.tv/media/e-Spot_Intro320x240.mp4"></video>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer("media").setup({
autostart: true,
controlbar: "over",
flashplayer: "http://e-spot.tv/media/player.swf",
provider: "rtmp",
streamer: "rtmp://flash80il.aquafluent.com/str",
file: "il80fls25145/e-SpotTV-24p.flv",
image: "http://e-spot.tv/img/video-fill.jpg"
});
</script>

Since you are using rtmp here, you need to use modes to do the html5 fallback.
