### 󠀁[Sticking with JW5. Version 6 a big disappointment.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sticking-with-jw5-version-6-a-big-disappointment/)󠁿

 [Pádraig Ó Beirn](https://profiles.wordpress.org/padraigbeirne/) February 7, 2017

Bought JW Player 6 and after extensive testing haven’t used it. It is much more 
difficult to customise skins for playlists and has less player setting options. 
While JW6 Premium gives the ability to remove the logo they’ve introduced a JW player
text link if you right-click on any video. To remove it you have to manually add
some tags to each of your WordPress shortcodes. Upgrading from version 5 means going
back on all previous videos for the past couple of years and adding these tags if
you want to remove the JW link. There is an obvious move away from users who simple
want a robust video player. It’s fine to move towards analytics, encoding and hosting
if you don’t leave behind your one-website non-commercial user. Jeroen from longtailvideo
states in another post that “basic video playback of an MP4 will become straightforward
as HTML5 gains full adoption”. That may be true but I, for one, was a loyal user
of JW and wouldn’t have even considered looking for an alternative until JW6. The
pricing structure is another big change and disappointment. The May survey of customers
on pricing was totally slanted towards an SaaS hosting content model with pricing
based on a set number of site and monthly plays. This is another reason why I will
be keeping abreast of other players for when it’s eventually time to move on from
JW5. Some features which were “deprecated” in JW5 are being re-introduced such as
horizontal volume sliders and <enclosure> but all-in-all it’s a huge disappointment
and a step backward for me.
