What's New in JW Player™ 5

The JW Player™ 5 introduces a number of architectural changes that broaden the ability to develop on and contribute to the platform.

• XML-based skinning model - No need for Flash CS4 to build skins. If you can create an XML file and images, then you can create a skin.
• Improved Plugin Architecture - The player now allows for a broader set of use cases such as securing content, player locking, advertising, and more..
• Support for Media Providers As always the JW Player supports the major CDNS, but with JW5 it's easy to build in support for any content source and dynamically load a SWF to add that functionality to the player (just like plugins do).

In addition to the above features, JW Player™ 5 is backward-compatible with the majority of JW4 SWF Skins, JW4 Plugins, & the JW4 JavaScript API.

Note: This support will be phased out in future versons of JW Player™ 5.

JW Player™ Overview

The JW Player™ is the Internet's most popular and flexible media player. It supports playback of any format the Adobe Flash Player can handle (FLV, H.264, MP4, MP3, AAC, JPG, PNG and GIF). It also supports various streaming and playlist formats (including RMTP, HTTP, live streaming and more), a wide range of flashvar settings.

The XML-based skinning functionality allows you to completely customize its look and its plugin architecture allows you to easily extend the player with features such as sharing, recommendations, searching, analytics and ad serving.
