JWPlayer : issue in stop and play using javascript

Question

I am using jwplayer to play videos on my site. I want to implement this scenario : - A small thumb nail image represent the video. - when a user click on the thumb image the jwplayer div shows and starts to play and the thumb image will hide . - An external close button will allow to close the video. Then the thumb image will show again. I am trying to accomplish it by using js. The following is used to play the video: ``` jwplayer('container').play(); ``` and this is used to stop the jwplayer: ``` jwplayer('container').stop(); ``` The functions are working in chrome . But in firefox when I try to play the video in second time the jwplayer is in BUFFERING state. Also revert back to the placeholder image. also shows an error sometime in console Error: Permission denied to access property 'toString' This is a sample jsfiddle demo http://jsfiddle.net/35bGW/ Please help me to find a solution for this. Thanks

YouTube now defaults to HTML5 mode as primary in 6.9.

There are some issues with setting up the player again with YouTube in HTML5 mode.

I have reported this as an issue to the player team here.

A work around, for now, is in your code, under this line:

```
stretching: 'exactfit',
```

Add:

```
primary: 'flash',
```

This should work around the issue for the time being.
