Question: How can I find out if jPlayer is playing?
I tried this `alert($.jPlayer.event.playing);` but it doesn't work.

Answer: 
I've not worked with Jplayer specifically, but playing around, this returned false if the media was playing and true if it wasn't.

```
$('#jquery_jplayer_1').data().jPlayer.status.paused

```
On my setup, I noticed the class "jp-state-playing" was added to the div that included jp-audio. I have not done a lot of research, but querying for a null object or not seemed better than tying myself to jPlayers internals.
