Ensure JW 4.6 runs #167

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

From the Longtail Video Forum----

Hi,
Was testing today JW 4.6 with Open Video Ads plugin but the player reported 
this error:
"No suitable model found for playback of this file".
After switching back to 4.5 (which came with the Open Video Ads plugin) the 
videos and ads ran 
fine.

Had anyone played with openvideoads and JW 4.6? I dont know if it's my fault or 
is a compatibility 
issue.

Thanks!

4.6 runs ok.. but it gets the placement of the ads in the wrong place/size in my
implemenation. If you set the size in the flashvars it will work fine
see 

V5: http://www.bcast.co.nz/examples/adstext/ (right place, right size)
V4.6: http://www.bcast.co.nz/examples/adstext/ (wrong place, wrong size)

the size/place is most likely as I don't set the width/height  in the 
flashvars, but
under V5 it seems to work fine. Dunno what you can do with the plugin to work
correctly in 4.6 (same problem in the 4.5) if you don't set the sizes

using a test pre-roll add, these are my experiences regarding JW versions:

- 4.5 (unlicensed): works fine
- 4.6 (licensed): doesn't work at all, "no suitable model found"
- 5.0 (licensed): works fine

So this issue seems to relate to something changing around the playlist 
importing... 

The following playlist (generated by OVA) works in 4.5 and 5.x, but not 4.6:

<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/">
    <title>No Title Provided</title>
    <trackList>
         <track>
             <creator>Author not available</creator>
             <location>http://static.bouncingminds.com:81/ads/30secs/country_life_butter.mp4</location>
             <meta rel="streamer">lighttpd</meta>
             <meta rel="provider">lighttpd</meta>
             <meta rel="start">0</meta>
         </track>
   </trackList>
</playlist>

Trying to sort out why....

Turns out, the fix is a pretty easy one...

The following tag must now be used in > 4.6 and 5.x playlists:

'<meta rel="type">' + provider + '</meta>'

So it needs to be:

<meta rel="type">lighttpd</meta>

Fixed in 4.2.0 (both JW 4.x and 5.x) - kept the old tags in there for backwards 
compatible (pre 4.6)
