Brad, your guys are always top notch and I do have a ticket in about this, the issue I'm having it that elevated X support is tying to get this working insides their script. But they don't do any of the actual wowza setup part.... So, when they need something changed, I have to update the mojohost ticket, then back to the elevated x ticket and so on. Your guys answer whatever is asked of them in usually minutes, but the response from Elevated is slower, sometimes days... so I have been going back and for on the issue now since July 12th.. even the slightest issue like one letter misplaced in the configuration seems to add another 5 days on the ticket....
What I'm trying to do today is see if this issue had to do with the extension of the video. The episode pro encoder outputs the video as filename only, and I manually added the mp4 extension. (Don't ask my why this is, I have support ticket in over at telesteam)
In reading deeper on the Jwplayer forums I found this...
"hi,
in my case, Extremists.m4v file does not stream with mp4: prefix, but it's working without the prefix. Is something wrong with my installation?"
with the reply,
"Nothing is wrong, it's because JW Player is adding the prefix. If you add it, it's being added again anyway.
Richard"
Which got me thinking that maybe I should not have added the .mp4 to the prefix and left it alone.... I'm copying one of my videos over to the test folder and having it changed to filename.mp4, filename.flv, and just plain filename. To see if I can get either of the 3 to work correctly. Sounds simple, but I have been working on this already 3 hours this morning cause I can't seem to move the files around myself (just too damn large) and reuploading them would take another 3 hours.
If I find the solution I'll share.

I've been through exactly the situation you explained above... after some research and well placed guidance from the EX programmers, if memory serves correctly we fixed the problem with switching up to an older jw player, and redoing the Wowza setup to use simplestreaming... There were a few code changeovers tied in, but I'm pretty sure source code would've been update to reflect these by now. I was banging my head up against a wall for a while, but EX came through bigtime for me, and we got everything running relatively painlessly once we new what we were dealing with.
