I installed the JW Player module and downloaded the player into the my libraries folder, but I am getting a missing player.swf file error when I go to reports > status reports. I am using it with the video module as the Flash player. I didn't remove anything from the downloaded folder, I simply moved it to the libraries folder. I cannot find the missing file anywhere to download. Any direction would be helpful. Thanks.

Error
JW Player
The file player.swf is not present in the directory sites/all/libraries/jwplayer
Please consult INSTALL.txt for installation instructions.

Change the file name of "jwplayer.flash.swf" to player.swf. in the library

What exactly is the point of using it as a library when you have to manually go in and change file names?

0/10 - will break in future update.
