test html5 mode in jwplayer

I am working with JWPlayer 6 using a Flash enabled browser.

How can I get JWPlayer 6 to use HTML 5 even if flash is installed.

I currently have the following config for JWPlayer:

jwplayer("player").setup({
    type: 'rtmp',
    streamer: "<?php echo "$wowza/$app_name"; ?>",
    height: 540,
    width: 960,
    'autostart': 'true',
    'bufferlength': '3',
    'file': '<?php echo $stream_name; ?>'
});

JWPlayer will opt to use the HTML5 version over a Flash version with any capable browser. http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/28837/browser-device-support#modes

You will need to list both the RTMP stream AND the HLS url within your sources in order for the JW Player to fall back. http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/29394/hls-with-mp4-fallback

This is what that might look like for you:

jwplayer("player").setup({
    type: 'rtmp',
     sources: [{
          file: "<?php echo "$wowza/$app_name"; ?>"
        },{
          file: "<?php echo "$wowza/$app_name"; ?>/playlist.m3u8"
        },{
          file: "http://non-wowza/assets/myVideo.mp4"
        }],
    height: 540,
    width: 960,
    'autostart': 'true',
    'bufferlength': '3',
    'file': '<?php echo $stream_name; ?>'
});
