Upgrade to 3.6 broke rss playlists

Hi Everyone, I just upgraded to jw player 3.6 module for joomla 1.5 (working on upgrading that) and my playlists that previously worked now say they can't find the file. Did the rss format change or something? I'm not sure what to look at to figure out what's wrong.

Thanks,
Craig

Hello,

look here :

www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/29253/basic-rss-feed

Thanks. This is the playlist that was working before I upgraded the jwplayer module on my joomla site. Is there a way to obtain the installer for jwplayer 2 so I can revert while I try to figure out what happened? BTW we are using flash media server to send the video to our site.

Thanks!

Rtmp are set inside the same tag now, Try this :

Ok I pasted this into my file and I can see the various selections if I http to the url, but my jwplayer isn't doing anything.. same error 'error loading playlist: error loading file'.. is it the file in the playlist or the playlist file? hmm..

Thanks!

Craig

Can you provide a link where I can see the player?

and also what exact url is given to you by the rtmp software ?

Thanks. Here is the link to the page from the posted xml above -

bbjiujitsu.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=82&Itemid=125

It was working fine before I upgraded now it's giving that error. I'm guessing something changed between the versions or something.

The only difference I see now is that the module settings (joomla) don't have the Streamer configuration item.

The flash media server url that was working before the upgrade is -

rtmp://71.174.91.32/vod/

Thanks!

Or did you mean the url to the rss -

71.174.91.32/techniquerss.xml

Streamer field is deprecated, now the rtmp url as to be fully given in one field, same for xml, so please can you modify your playlist with the xml code given here (I try it and it works) :

1 - This one is not ok :

this one is ok :


2 - you have to allow also the xml file to be load from this server (as you store it here) :

because there is some flash and javascript security to consider for remote server storing -->

www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/28844/crossdomain-file-loading

for that you have to put a crossdomain file here :

71.174.91.32/crossdomain.xml

and load CORS with your htaccess :


The more simple is to store your xml file here (where the player is) :

bbjiujitsu.com/

and load it with a relative path

/techniquerss.xml
