Q: Hello,
Forgive me the mistakes in my English!
I bought yesterday your Videolightbox and try to put fist the free version on my site. (Joomla 2.5) Can you help me?
A: Video LightBox wasn't developed as Joomla or any other CMS extension, BUT you can try to use it as standard Javascript files. To install the Video LightBox into your html page:
1) open the page in your program
2) open html source code of the page
3) add several rows of code:
Copy code for the HEAD section and paste it inside the HEAD section of you own webpage, for example:
<head>
...
<!-- Start VideoLightBox.com HEAD section -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="engine/css/videolightbox.css" type="text/css" />
<style type="text/css">#videogallery a#videolb{display:none}</style>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="engine/css/overlay-minimal.css"/>
<script src="engine/js/jquery.tools.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="engine/js/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- make all links with the 'rel' attribute open overlays -->
<script src="engine/js/videogallery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- End VideoLightBox.com HEAD section -->
...
</head>
Copy code for the BODY section and paste it inside the Body section of you own webpage in the place where you want to have a gallery, for example:
<body>
...
<!-- Start VideoLightBox.com BODY section -->
<div id="videogallery">
<a rel="#voverlay" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/n9-8UsJ-cpc?autoplay=1" title="Manchester United vs Chelsea Penalty shootout 2008">
<img src="data/thumbnails/0.png" alt="Manchester United vs Chelsea Penalty shootout 2008"/><span></span></a><a id="videolb"
href="http://videolightbox.com">Video In A Lightbox by VideoLightBox.com v1.6</a>
</div>
<!-- End VideoLightBox.com BODY section -->
...
</body>
Copy 'data' folder with images and video files and 'engine' folder with .css and .js files into the same folder with your own webpage.
Hi I just purchased commercial version of videolightbox and I have been trying to insert a jquery video thumbnail video on a Webpage but does not work. What folder should the graphics and video be in? They've implemented it and it works well on it's own. The videos work but you can't view the thumbnail for the web embed video videos.
I'm testing your lightbox youtube video VideoLightBox app. When I look at your demos, IE does not come up with that. I am interested in purchasing your lightbox youtube business edition of this lightbox software. Please can you help me ?!
I'm interested in your product. However, they wish to use it in conjunction with some Javascript that filters a list of s, a feat it accomplishes by removing all of the s from the jquery video overlay page and then reinserting the html5 video appropriate ones. Any tips as to how I can get past this Windows Vista control issue?
I've downloaded your ajax video player software and because I love what I've seen. How come the thumbnails produced are not from the beginning of the video? How can I get the popup videos to do the same?
I want to use VideoLlightBox for flv videos but whenever I put the video player url in it complains that it's not accepted. However when I try to link it it is not working. I want to (a) preserve aspect ration; and (b) have both my video gallery lightbox vertical and horizontal images fully and correctly displayed.
How can I add video on my video gallery jquery page? If I add the &hd=1 flag to the javascript video player code, it still doesn't show in HD. What can I do?
