I don t know if I ll be able to get this answer here, but I m trying to get the JW Player to toggle between high and low quality settings. Here is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject( /lessons/videos/player.swf , mpl , 610 , 480 , 9 );
so.addParam( allowfullscreen , true );
so.addParam( allowscriptaccess , always );
so.addVariable( plugins , http://www.mbira.me/lessons/videos/plugins/hd/hd.swf );
so.addVariable( hd.state ,false);
so.addVariable( hd.autoswitch ,false);
so.addVariable( hd.bandwidth ,3200);
so.addVariable( hd.file , /lessons/videos/Buka_Tiende_from_calculator.flv );
so.addVariable( file , /lessons/L2/Nhemamusasa_Acoustic.flv );
so.write( mediaspace );
</script>
I read here that there is a setting that there is a default built into the HD plugin to switch determined on the users bandwidth. I downloaded a patch here: http://interfacelab.com/patch-for-hd-plugin-for-jw-player/
So I could disable that behavior to test, but still no luck. You can see in my code, that for now, I just have two different videos to toggle in order to test if things are working. I should say that both those videos are actually "high quality" for now, but that shouldn t make a difference I guess. Any ideas, and if not, any other places I could look to implement this functionality? Thanks! Joel
