Note:

1. The jwplayer package consists of the file: mediaplayer.swf
2. The flv file path: uploads/d8wxa5cf8sagkn.flv
3. The video splash image: thumbs/l_d8wxa5cf8sagkn.jpg
4. stretching=exactfit allows the video to stretch to the maximum. Other values: uniform, fill, none. You can also right click on the video to change this param
5. wmode=transparent makes the video display transparent in the page. Other values: opaque, window
6. icons=false does not show the loading icon on the top of video

Remember that it is recommended to give the absolute paths to the files in the above code, rather than relative path.
