Flow Player Web

This guide is for integrating the MediaMelon Player SDK for the javascript based Flow Player Web

Step 1: Add the MediaMelonPlayer SDK

Add the following lines to the web page at the starting. 

  <script type="text/javascript" src="https://PATH_TO_MEDIAMELON_PLAYER_SDK/mmsmartstreaming_flowjsplayer.min.js"></script>

Step 2: Register and Initialize the MediaMelon Player SDK

<customer_id> is your MediaMelon-assigned Customer ID. If you do not know your Customer ID contact MediaMelon at support@mediamelon.com

After the player instance has been created, create a new Plugin object, register, report player Info and then initialize the plugin as shown below:
