First of all thanks for the great module. Really useful. With the new info I was able to get the play button overlay working. However I was wondering if there might be a better choice for the modal window js that you're using. While it functions fine, design wise, I think fancy box or shadowbox is a better looking choice as the frame doesn't distract from the video. Just a suggestion. Not sure what it would take to create an alternative "lightbox" option, but just wanted to give you some aesthetic feedback. Thanks again, this is exactly what I needed to get my new site up and running.

rmontero commentedThanks for your comments. They are super helpful as usual.
We chose DOMWindow in favor of other more feature rich options because we are performance nuts... Dom window is one of the lightest best performing modal overlay scripts out there.
It wouldn't take much to be able to extend the module and make it take other overlay libraries in fact, as you might have noticed, the UI is already prepared to do so., however it is not in my immediate plans to do that.
The module is open source so if you or anyone else would like to contribute that functionality as a patch I would gladly review it and include it in the next release.
Best regards,
Rob Montero.

CinemaSaville commentedHi Rob,
I'd love to contribute a patch, but I'm not much of a programmer so I don't think I'd be of much use in that arena. I will however continue to provide exception feedback ; ) And thanks again.
