Description

if the OVA plugin tries to load an ad and fails (ie. 404 or non-compliant xml), the normal video will not autoplay. Is there a way around this?

Actually, the problem is no longer that the stream won't start. It starts on a VAST request failure - it's that it won't stop auto-playing. For both JW implementations and Flowplayer.

Get to the end of the stream (without a post-roll) and the stream will autoplay from the start again.

Mistaken. This works. Closing.

Actually, re-opening.

This fails if the config is set as a flashvar "file=" not a show stream (show stream definitions work).

Just JW specific.

This only impacts OVA for JW5x - the root cause is that the PlaylistEvent.JWPLAYER_PLAYLIST_LOADED isn't being fired which means the play is never being triggered.

Fixed - added a check to loadJWClip() to determine if the clip loaded in the player is the same one being loaded. If it is, then the onPlaylistLoaded() event is forcibly fired.
