As you might know, there are major changes in media API in Moodle 3.2 which has introduced media plugins. Within few month we plan to release JW Player 7 media plugin for Moodle 3.2, which will eventually eliminate the need of this filter. But in the meantime, we understand that some users rely on JW Player and want it in 3.2 earlier, so it has been decided to release this "ported" version of filter plugin along with 7-0.6 release for Moodle 2.9-3.1.

This is the first release after versioning change, prefix 7 indicates that plugin is designed to work with JW Player 7 (for JW6 plugin see release 6-0.4).

This release introduces lots of changes to support JW 7 and contains upgraded JS code that uses Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD) API (new in Moodle 2.9). In addition to that, some new features have been added to plugin (thanks to @owenbarritt), needless to say that JW7 itself is brining new functionality and makes some formerly premium features free. Upgrade is possible from any earlier version of plugin; however, the minimum requirement is now Moodle 2.9 (due to AMD). Also, make sure you have JW 7 license, especially if you used any paid edition of JW 6 before (it does not work with JW6 license key). See upgrade manual for more details.
