## Deliverables
We need the JWPlayer, an open source flash based video player by Longtail Video, customized to fit the needs of our client.
The current player, as seen in the url below, is the basic install with one plugin (HD) provided by JWPlayer.

The source code can be found here:

We need this player to look like this:

We would like a single plugin developed for the player that allows us to show everything that is included in the "skinned" version above. This includes:
1. An "HD" button that toggles HD quality on/off. The correct behavior for this would be:
* For HD "ON" going to "OFF" The player stops, switches the video source to non-HD, and begins playback from the beginning.
* For HD "OFF" going to "ON"? The player stops, switches the video source to HD, and begins playback from the beginning.
2. An "Embed" button that when clicked, opens a modal window and presents the user with embed code they can copy/paste. The resulting embed code will show the video player (and video) in any other website.
3. A "Share" button that when clicked, opens a modal window and presents the user with buttons to share across multiple social networking websites.
4. A "Vote" button that when clicked, makes a request to an HTTP handler that registers the vote. (this handler will be completed by us).
5. The "Title" of the video, the "Author" of the video and a thumbnail image of the author's profile image.
6. Custom skinned elements as seen in the screenshot for video playback: play/pause button, timeline slider, timeline time remaining, volume, full screen, etc.
Please note:
1. The screenshots of the example players (.PNG's above) currently do not match. This is normal, and the player should be able to scale regardless of what the final size is.
