Do I have these instructions/code correct?

JavaScript
1

I was instructed to “find a line that specifies where that video-js.swf file is located”(within the video-js file).
So, I searched for “swf” and the only line I see is:
“GENERATED_CDN_VSN” !== t.ic && (videojs.options.flash.swf = t.vd + “vjs.zencdn.net/” + t.ic + “/video-js.swf”);

Then I was instructed to:
"locate the .swf file and change that code to:
video.js.options.flash.swf={{path to that .swf}}

I changed that line to:
“GENERATED_CDN_VSN”!==t.ic&&(video.js.options.flash.swf={{http://www…com/video-js-4.12.5/video-js/video-js.swf file}}");

(with the full domain name path included, of course), then uploaded that /video.js file back into the video-js folder, cleared my cache, but that didn’t remedy the issue of the video-js player appearing in IE8. Which was the reason for the instructions.
I’m assuming the person instructing knows what he’s talking about, but my question is, do you think I interpreted, and completed, the instructions correctly? If not, maybe you can make a suggestion as to what to change in the JavaScript (or other insight). Any help will be appreciated.

I suspect - based solely on your brief description and an intuition from looking at the code - you should not have included the ‘curly-braces’.

It appears they were used, in the instructions, to represent the path-and-filename.

Try this instead:

“GENERATED_CDN_VSN”!==t.ic&&(video.js.options.flash.swf=“http://ACTUAL_DOMAIN_OF_COURSE/video-js-4.12.5/video-js/video-js.swf”);

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I tried that without success. Any other ideas will be welcomed.
