Bug: JW Player v7 Compatibility Issue

[renzms]

Overview

We want to make JW Player v7 compatible with s2member. There is an error message after trying to upload files and use JW Player v7 with s2member. JW Player v7 is not yet compatible with s2Member as all of the code samples and [s2Stream/] shortcode are intended for JW Player v6.

Steps to Reproduce

• Upgrade to/install JW Player v7 + s2member
• Upload media files
• Attempt to play media

Expected Behavior

Files will play normally via JW Player.

Observed Behavior

Error message prompt.

When uploading files to website, message prompts: "Error setting up player: Missing license key".

Temporary Fix

Please revert JW Player to v6 to correct this error.

Okay, I subscribe as well, also would love to use much faster new jw player 7 :-)

they say they "rewrote the player from gound up" and although everyone likes to claim that, if true, I understand it may be quite some work for Jason to look through their code again.
Nonetheless, allegedly v7 is much better. Urgently needed: the integration of s2m with v6 with s3 with CF is VERY SLOW and many interruptions...

Hi guys,
I have problem with the jwplayer 7 and the integration with S3. I can run the videos with the download-modus without issues (with multiples video qualities too) , but with the rtmp doesn't work. For that we need a manifesto file like "smil" in case of rtmp or "m3u8" for hls. those files have a crossdomain and need signed cookies.

"Error setting up player: Missing license key".

You can use this WordPress function to add the license key (needs min. WordPress 4.5.0):
wp_enqueue_script('jwplayer', get_bloginfo('url').'/jwplayer/jwplayer.js', array('jquery'), false, false);
wp_add_inline_script('jwplayer', 'jwplayer.key="YourLicenseKey";');

@renzms: Maybe you can use this in the shortcode.

hi i am having issues with S2member's shortcodes not working with the new jwplayer 7 because it is still using the jw player 6. Any resolution to this?
