Hello,
Local videos are displaying as just a blank area on the screen.

I have circumvented the problem by
(1) unstalling v4.4 (plg_jw_allvideos-v4.4_j1.5-2.5.zip)
(2) installing v4.3 (plg_jw_allvideos-v4.3_j1.5-2.5.zip)
Apparently there is a problem with v4.4.

I've gotten v4.4 to work as well. Go to the plugin manager and select Allvideos. In Advanced Options, change "Compress player JS scripts using PHP" to "Yes". This was done on my live site (I had no problems displaying videos when working on my localhost). I have tested the plugin on Chrome, Firefox, and Safari (I'm a Mac user) and the videos display on all three.
Hope this helps!
