Hello, I am putting together a membership site and I wanted to use the image thumbnail lightbox feature for my videos. I noticed that the standard YouTube URL works great but I can’t seem to get my self-hosted video to work with this feature. So I’m assuming it’s not support. Any plans of supporting it out of the box? Is there any other solutions I can use other than YouTube for membership videos in lightbox mode?
I don’t mind using YouTube at all! I really like it. But, the YouTube logo is on every video and the title and my watermark are clickable. This is bad because I do not want my members going to YouTube when they are learning my training. Any advice and/or alternative solutions would be appreciated.
Best!
Hey sethriley!
Thanks for your kind words, we do appreciate them,
There is no roadmap for now, to intregrate something like, but there are third party plugins that will work for you, to play your videos or host them in your site.Thanks a lot for your time

BasilisI’m not looking for a way to play my self-hosted videos. As stated above I am looking for a way to play them in a lightbox using your image lightbox feature. So my question is, what video players are support in the lightbox mode out of the box? Vimeo?
Hi!
The lightbox plugin that is included in the theme doesn’t support mp4 formatted or self hosted videos so you have to look for another lightbox plugin or script. Maybe, these plugins will help:

IsmaelOk, thank you for clarifying that for me!
1 more question: how do I setup the lighbox video to use the cool play button with the wave animation when clicked? I see it setup in a demo site but I am not using that particular demo.
Thank you!
