The start/stop on video click not working

  • Hi,

    I was using the version 2.1.1 of this plugin. I use it in my post using this shortcode:

    [jwplayer aspectratio=”16:9″ width=”100%” autostart=”true” primary=”flash” controls=”false” sources=”{ file:’rtmp://xxx.cloudfront.net/cfx/st/mp4:xxx.mp4′ },{ file:’https://xxx.s3.amazonaws.com/xxx.mp4′ }”]

    In the previous 2.1.1 version the video was stoping/pausing when you click on it.

    I’ve updated the plugin to 2.1.9, but now the video doesn’t have this start/pause option. Why? How can I add it in this new updated one?

    Thanks from now for the answers.

    Another problem that I’ve found is that, the new version doesn’t show the video in mobile format in the latest version.

    In version 2.1.1, it works perfectly fine with the above shortcode for mobile devices. But the mp4 video is not served for mobiles in the new update.

    Is there any notation change in the new version or a bug?

    I’ve tried to remove the rtmp link and use only html5 as source.

    It opens fine in computers, but the video doesn’t play in mobile devices.

    I think I’ve found the reason of this problem:

    Because video start/stop by clicking the video doesn’t working in this new update, if you hide the controls, since clicking on the video doesn’t start the video, then it stays black like that.

    When you hide the controls, and set the auto start false, then simply you cannot play the video either in copmuters or in mobile devices.

    I guess there was a logical reason why the start/stop on clicking option was working in the old updates. I think that should be reactivated.

    That was changed in an old player version, but if you set controls to false, you can just use some JavaScript to enable this.

    <script>
    jwplayer().onDisplayClick(function() { jwplayer().play(); });
    </script>

    I’ve solved it using this code. Thanks a lot.
