<h2>Quick Start</h2>
|
|
|
28 |
|
|
|
29 |
<p>Copy the <strong>jwplayer</strong> folder that contains this README to the www root of your website. Next, include the <em>jwplayer.js</em> 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:</p>
|
|
|
30 |
|
|
|
31 |
<pre>
|
|
|
32 |
<script type="text/javascript" src="/jwplayer/jwplayer.js" ></script>
|
|
|
33 |
<script type="text/javascript">jwplayer.key="ABCDEFGHIJKLMOPQ";</script>
|
|
|
34 |
</pre>
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
<p>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 <a href="http://www.longtailvideo.com/jw-player/signup/">click here to sign up</a> and get your key.</p>
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
|
38 |
<p>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:</p>
|
|
|
39 |
|
|
|
40 |
<pre>
|
|
|
41 |
<div id="myElement">Loading the player...</div>
|
|
|
42 |
|
|
|
43 |
<script type="text/javascript">
|
|
|
44 |
jwplayer("myElement").setup({
|
|
|
45 |
file: "/uploads/example.mp4",
|
|
|
46 |
image: "/uploads/example.jpg",
|
|
|
47 |
});
|
|
|
48 |
</script>
|
|
|
49 |
</pre>
