5 months ago I got it working better by following the PlaylistItem and Config types. The component says it can be either or, but it doesn't work with the Jw varieties:
import JWPlayer, { Config, PlaylistItem } from '@jwplayer/jwplayer-react-native'
import { useRef } from 'react'
import { Platform, StyleSheet } from 'react-native'
const playlistItem: PlaylistItem = {

title:
'Riot’s Short Report, CoreWeave’s $1 Billion Offer and BitDeer’s ASIC Play',
mediaId: 'wlluXCqg',
description: 'There’s too much M&A in Bitcoin mining to keep track of! \n',
