I tested your latest example and it works locally for me (the latter example in your most recent reply). Where are you loading this page? Can you screenshot your attempt to playback?

You can fallback to RTSP similar to the way we describe [here](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-jw-player-with-wowza-streaming-engine). Scroll down to “Simple RTMP and Apple HLS streaming” where indicates RTSP fallback.

@zeeshanakhter. The screenshot you sended is that you started jwplayer from your dropbox.

thats what the error also saying. it cant get the player configuration.

upload your code and all jwplayer files and the .html file to a domain or xampp environment and you will see its working

here a test of your code:

i tested your code and its working fine

i downloaded the free jwplayer 6.8 player.

created and index.html with your code and uploaded it.
