Hello all,

Just a quick question, I'm about to create a wordpress site that has embedded videos and I was wondering which plugin module would be best to do the following.

Basically on the wordpress pages there would be 6 jpeg thumbnails, and when selected I would like the corresponding video to play in a lightbox type feature?

Here is a wire diagram http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3054/3896796618_0ac9798223.jpg

So when you click on the TTV vids, the screen will darken and the video will pop out and play.

Any ideas?

Many thanks,
Sam

Cheers mate, but can I ask how I post the videos? Do I upload a jpg thumbnail and then link it to a flv? Or do I use the add/edit embedded media button default in WP?

Ok sorted that, just seem that I had a cached version of the site.

Anyways, I seem to have a problem, shadowbox js doesn't seem to resize the window to the video dimensions, it works fine with images but no with the jw player. Any ideas?

I haven't tried this one myself but I saw it working just fine on another wordpress site.

Try this plugin:

I suggest to use free PHP IDE <a href="http://www.codelobster.com">Codelobster PHP Edition</a> with special WordPress plug-in.
