Hi,

I'm trying to create a video gallery for a client where user click on a thumbnail preview image of the video and it opens in a lightbox. I'm currently at a loss as to how to do this. I've created my gallery through views, but I cannot figure out how to get the embedded video to display in a lightbox. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!

Video Embed Field has colorbox integration, which is effectively the same as lightbox. Simply install the module, and you'll be given an additional display mode.

Colorbox can be found here: http://drupal.org/project/colorbox

The new Display mode is there.
But the class that is added to the link: "colorbox-load" does not work as far as I see.
A class that works is just "colorbox". While I think I can edit the field template, this is not ideal.
Maybe you can revise this?
Or am I doing something wrong?

Class name fixed. Now it provides both colorbox and colorbox-load classes to avoid problems.
Fixed in -dev
