• Can you include your HTML and JavaScript here - it works fine when using the example HTML and JavaScrip – Manse Commented May 15, 2012 at 9:28

Works fine for me just how the documentation specifies :

<div id="container"></div>


jwplayer("container").setup({
    file: "http://content.bitsontherun./videos/nPripu9l-60830.mp4",
    flashplayer: "http://player.longtailvideo./player.swf",
    image: "http://content.bitsontherun./thumbs/nPripu9l-480.jpg",
    height: 270,
    width: 480
});
var state = jwplayer("container").getState();
var elapsed = jwplayer("container").getPosition();

How does your HTML and JavaScript look? Without seeing these, I can only assume the following.

According to the API documentation on the website this can be achieved without specifying a container, like so...

jwplayer().getPosition()
