Hallo,

I have the following "problem":

on the one side I have a mp4-video hostet on my own site. Clicking the play-button this video have ton load completly before playing starts. This may be a long time

on the other side there is an youtube-video hostet by youtube (of course). Clicking the play-button the video starts after a short time an loads the rest of the file during playing.

Both examples you can see here:

Is it possible also with the JWPlayer an where can I configure this?

thank yuo for support!

best regards

Hi. First i don't see a YouTube video in the link you sent. I see two videos hosted on your site. Second, this has to do with the video encoding. You can read more at support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/questions/6062718-h264-video-will-not-start-until-entire-file-downloads .

Hallo,

thank you for the quick answer.

Sorry, that was my mistake. You are right! There is no link to an youtube-video, but the second shown video is from a different owner an it works. Not so the first...here i have to wait until the whole file is loaded.

If I understand zuo right, I have to generate the video with another Codec but H264 or I have to use another tool (actual power director v12) or an converter?

best regards

I cannot tell for sure. It depends on the codec each software is using. I would try mp4 again but with a different software.
