JWPlayer not loading video, instead downloading when clicking on play.
We have a web page built using angularJS where we are showing the videos of the uploaded videos using JWPlayer,
but When the web page is loaded, the JWPlayer doesn't load the video instead it shows half the width of the actual video width and when the play button is clicked, video is not played instead video starts to download.
This behavior is seen across different browsers, across different systems. However, on certain systems it is playing fine. Also, on certain systems it is playing fine in Chrome but not playing on firefox. The browser setting across the browsers on different systems is the same.
When the element is inspected, different HTML tag is shown for browsers where it is not working and a different HTML is shown for browser where it is working.
For half width player (not working): The 'a' tag is shown with the with href path where the content gets downloaded when clicked on play.(half-image.png)
For full width player (working): The video is wrapped in div container with default player embedded in it and content is played when clicked on play.(full-image.jpg)
After updating the browser and re-logging in, the JWPlayer loads the video with full width in some cases.
versions used:
jwplayer : 0.2.1
