BrightCove has switched to videojs7 #27

We need to update the CSS classes and make other tests, since the <video> tag now gets the .vjs-v7 class not .vjs-v6, and the styling breaks.

Videojs7 deprecates playback in IE8,9,10.

I think as a result of this I am seeing two of every button in the player when linking to a BrightCove video.

Thanks @mikedkelly - In BrightCove you can set your player to not update automatically to the latest BCove player version. We recommend that you stick to BCove player 6.22 (I believe that's the last videojs v6 player) for now. It's easy enough to switch the CSS classes to .vjs-v7 but we have had some other issues.

Thanks @bryanlandia. That was very helpful. I was able to reconfigure my player and lock down the version. I'm back in business.
