Apparently you need to pay to get a key from jwplayer.com. That used to be a free feature to use the player (which had a watermark for free accounts).

Since JW Player is not the main player for AllVideos either way (Clappr is) and since the next update of AllVideos will focus on standards and removing legacy formats, if you don't wish to pay, don't bother with JWPlayer.

Thank you for verifying this issue.
My understanding is that Clappr is automatically used for all media types except for those it cannot handle (FLV, for example). Is there a complete list of Clappr formats anywhere to help us know which to avoid to never trigger JWPlayer?

I'm trying to reconcile the partial listing in your own blog post with clappr's format table at github:

- Clappr is now the primary media player for most modern formats (e.g. mp4, webm, mkv, mp3, ogg/oga/ogv etc.). It's open source, lightweight and extensible.

- JW Player has been updated to v7 and now used for any media formats that are not supported by Clappr (e.g. for FLV). If you use your own commercial API key for JW Player, you need to make sure it's v7 compatible.

The link you added is correct (it now includes compatibility for even more formats to be exact).
