I am unable to watch this - the Jwplayer script is not working. It is obfuscated (right click disabled so I cant inspect the javascript rendered code).

On my phone I can watch the videos (HTML5) but any browser based viewing (IE/Chrome) on my PC craps out.

I work for a "rinky dink" company (in web development) and we host cross browser video - no javascript required. We tried JWplayer - but it was a waste of time - 5 lines of html code cope with all fallbacks, and we host all video formats on our server via http protocol.

My IE has flash enabled (doesn't work), Chrome is flash disabled (doesn't work).

1. In IE the video is definitely flash (and times out before playing)
2. In Chrome (without spending hours downloading all the js files and trolling) I suspect it is also rendering flash.

The fact that I can see the videos on my phone (nexus 5 on Chrome) tells me that the HTML5 versions of the videos (and the hosts) are working, but there is an issue with where you host your flash files.

Happy to help out (old school programmer "ZX80" wink) who does this sort of stuff everyday for a living.

Thanks for the feedback thumbup

The videos on the site are provided by videojug, and thus it is their development team that have built the player - so I will point this thread to them and see what they say.

This is kind of related, so I'll put it here. The PHTV link from the forum topbar goes to an old empty page, not the new page...

That skin is so 2009... wink

Will get it updated.

As to the other matter, I have not had a response that helps yet.
