Flash video working on one of two sites in Chrome

I am developing a pair of websites (podyplomie.pl and magwet.pl).
On both of them we have added a video player (JWPlayer).
I am almost sure flash player on both of them was working in the beginnig but now I can play the video (in flash) only on one of the sites (podyplomie.pl).
The other site is missing flash player in the list of navigator.plugins. Both sites are very similar so it's quite strange that one of them 'contains' the flash player and the second doesn't.
Has anyone got an idea what is wrong ?
The video urls are eg:
Video on magwet.pl
Video on podyplomie.pl
You don't have any Flash video (.FLV). Your videos are in .MP4 format. Chrome browser can play MP4 with it's own decoding engine (no need for plugins like Flash). JW Player is seeing MP4 given as video source so it talks to browser not plugin...
PS: To force Flash plugin usage then provide an .flv file or rtmp:// link.

What video player to use for streaming within Ionic 2?

I need to build an APP that would index videos (m3u8) from an API and allow to play them within the application itself. Only plugin I could make work and that seems to work in both iOS and Android is cordova-plugin-streaming-media, but has some issues with HLS streaming (https://github.com/nchutchind/cordova-plugin-streaming-media/issues/77).
Any suggestions? I would like it to support fullscreen. Tried videojs and couldn't get it to work in fullscreen within the device.
Thanks!

How is this Flash video playable on mobile devices [using JWPlayer]?

I'm trying to make my anime-streaming website FLV videos playable on mobile device, so I changed the technology I'm using from flash to HTML5 MP4, webM and OGG.
But while I'm surfing this site - which is using jwPlayer - from my Android device:
Here
I found that the video is working well although it is using FLV?
Can anyone explain how this could happen?
It is a feature of JWplayer. It will detect when Flash is not supported and switch to HTML5.
This is from their website:
JW Player is tested on the world’s most popular desktop browsers to
ensure the best playback experience for your viewers. From IE8 to the
latest version of Chrome, on Windows and OS X we ensure that any user
can watch your content. JW Player always selects the best playback
mode for your media behind the scenes.

I found that the video is working well although it is using FLV ?!
Please, can anyone explain how could this happen ?
Are you saying FLV because it is Flash? Did you know Flash itself can play MP4 files anyway? Looking at the source code I see MP4 video files provided so I think they are just using Flash Player app to play MP4 files where plugin is available or else then using HTML5 for mobile etc.
Test by disabling Flash Plugin in mobile browser settings, you should now see an HTML5 player instead for handling exact same file that Flash app was playing.
So to answer : How is this Flash video playable on mobile devices [using JWPlayer]?
You have a mobile with Flash Plugin installed and you visited a page that had a video player app made with Flash to play some MP4 files. Your mobile is flash capable so it worked and you watched some MP4 file using a Flash decoder instead of an HTML5 decoder.

Chrome extension context menu doesn't work on YouTube HTML5 players

I made a context menu by using chrome api(http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/samples.html#contextMenus) to develop a chrome extension.
when I right click on a Vimeo HTML5 video player, the context shows up.
but on a YouTube HTML5 video, it doesn't show up. (I've enabled HTML5 player at YouTube)
why is this difference occurred even they use the same HTML5 player?
perhaps Vimeo uses another video platform instead of HTML5 player?
please answer me :-)
