README: JW Player Free

Thank you for downloading the Free edition of JW Player 6, the world's most popular HTML5/Flash video player! JW Player Free features:

A slick and intuitive interface that works on all popular desktop browsers and mobile devices.
An elegant and rich playback engine for rendering your media content in HTML5 and/or Flash.
An extensive list of configuration options, a powerful JavaScript API and flexible PNG Skinning.

See About JW Player for an overview of supported browsers/devices, as well as a more detailed feature list. See Migrating from JW5 to JW6 if you want to learn what changed with this latest release.

Quick Start

Copy the jwplayer folder that contains this README to the www root of your website. Next, include the jwplayer.js script in the <head> of your HTML page. If you have a JW Player Key, add it in a second line right below the first one:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/jwplayer/jwplayer.js" ></script>
<script type="text/javascript">jwplayer.key="ABCDEFGHIJKLMOPQ";</script>

This key will automatically track video analytics to your JW Player account. If you don't have an account yet, check your inbox for your download confirmation e-mail or click here to sign up and get your key.

Now scroll down to the <body> of your HTML page and insert the JW Player embed code at the place you want your video to appear:

<div id="myElement">Loading the player...</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
    jwplayer("myElement").setup({
        file: "/uploads/example.mp4",
        image: "/uploads/example.jpg",
    });
</script>

See the online quickstart guide for a more elaborate description and a few example embeds.
