Question about Android
We have run a wowza server for the past three years. recently we have users that use android devices. Every thing streams correctly using Jwplayer on desktops and IOS devices. Android on the other hand does not. What is the best implementation so that our users can watch live and VOD content on these devices? Should we look at getting a different player?
I would like to stay away from adding a separate link for android devices.
TIA
