Just a comment that JW Player Moodle filter new version (with JW7 support) has just been released: https://moodle.org/plugins/filter_jwplayer
It has been refactored to use AMD API. Among another big things is logging, so that user actions in player interface are reflected in course reports. And obviously it brings all new JW 7 features to your Moodle as well
Hi Ruslan,
Thanks for sharing. I'm trying it out now. Some preliminary observations:
Plays back WebM video without issues from:
Plays back MP4 video from:
Plays back F4V video over RTMP from: rtmp://cp67126.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mp4:mediapm/osmf/content/test/sample1_700kbps.f4v automatically switching over to the JW Flash Player.
Doesn't affect Youtube links, but Moodle's standard multimedia filter does, and JW Player appears to take priority, overriding video links that it does embed.
I set it to "responsive" in the admin settings and the player window adjusts to the available width on the page. Nice!
Had a look at the course live logs. The last 3 entries reported as:

Ruslan, are there any plans to create an Atto JW Player wizard so that users can set some of the parameters of embedded videos, similar to what I've suggested earlier in this discussion?
No plans to have atto plugin for now. But with JW Player filter you can pass player parameters using data-jwplayer-* tag in the link, for instance you can add subtitles or poster screen that will be shown before play button is clicked, or configure some other player parameters.
