I have been trying to update my website with the new version of this module but both your install methods were not working, I was getting this error:
"The selected file %file could not be uploaded, because the destination %directory is not properly configured."

That comes out because the directory "sites/default/files/jwplayermodule/player/" did not exist in my drupal installation.
After I created it I have been able to properly install the Player.
You should check a directory exists before you try to move a file to it. :)

Thanks for reporting this.

The module does in fact check if the directory exists and will create it using Drupal's built in file API. It's interesting that this didn't work correctly. I will have to investigate further.

Thanks.

I just wanted to add that due to this same error, it is not possible to create new players, since it tries to save them in "sites/default/files/jwplayermodule/config/", which doesn't exist too

Yeah, you would need that directory too. Now to figure out why the directories weren't created for you.
