 Or use the media module (http://drupal.org/project/media) if you want to have your
 file field display images and video.
 
+The simplest way to use MediaElement.jd with <audio> and <video> fields embedded
+in content, is to enable the feature sitewide;
+- Go to admin/config/media/mediaelement
+- Check "Enable MediaElement.js site wide"

 API
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 This module supplies the MediaElement library as a Drupal library and has some
-helper functions if you want to use it independently of fields. To add the
-library into a page use the command:
+helper functions if you want to use it independently of fields.
 
-drupal_add_library('mediaelement', 'mediaelement');
+The bare minimum to add the third party library to a page, is:
 
-If you want to Use the helper scripts include the script mediaelement.js included
-with the module. You can do it using a command like:
+  drupal_add_library('mediaelement', 'mediaelement');
 
-drupal_add_js(drupal_get_path('module', 'mediaelement') . '/mediaelement.js');
+Most likely you will also want to use the module's helper scripts to initialize
+the third party script.  For example:
 
-Then you need to add settings for the script. They are a selector for jQuery and
-settings. For example:
+  $settings = array(
+    // The key is a jQuery selector.
+    'audio,video' => array(
 
-$settings = array('mediaelement' => array(
-  '.class-name' => array(
-    'controls' => TRUE,
-    'opts' => array(), // This is the mediaelement scripts options.
-  );
-));
-drupal_add_js($settings, 'setting');
+      // Disable or enable the controls.
+      'controls' => TRUE,
 
-For more details on the MediaElement API see http://mediaelementjs.com
+      // @see http://mediaelementjs.com for more details on the MediaElement API.
+      'opts' => array(),
