Video Lightbox

How can I select thumbnail in embedding video in html not from the beginning of the video?

Sep 26, 2012

Q: I am evaluating Video Lightbox for use at my website.
How come the thumbnails produced are not from the beginning of the video? Are they from a set point in a video? Can they be made to always be from the beginning?

A: You can use your own images as the thumbnails for video gallery.
You should manually correct the code for BODY section of Video LightBox in that case, for example:

<div id="videogallery">
<a rel="#voverlay" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/TaAmsnOghUQ?autoplay=1" title="football;">
<img src="images/YourImageName.png" alt="football;" /><span></span></a>


Don't forget to upload this image on your server.
