I am using JW player and it appears that the player cannot fallback to HLS/HLD. I would like to use only one video source for streaming (RTMP) and HLS (iOS devices)....

Any ideas and/or code samples on how to do this would be appreciate. :-)

Thanks!

i know jw player supports html fallback, but i cant tell you off the top of my head how to do it. check the docs or try posting int heir forums, their people are usually very helpful. In short what needs to happen is if there is no flash player detected it should render the html video tag. the biggest challenge is making sure your source path is different for the appropriate flash rtmp path or the html hls path. Weve done this manually before in JS, where we just specify the stream name and dynamically generate the paths for the appropriate delivery mechanism.
