No, this isn't a feature of the lightbox2 module and probably never will be. If you're dealing with 3rd party videos, from youtube, etc, you should check out the emfield video module which does this, and which lightbox2 supports. Otherwise you will need to create your own thumbnails.

Cheers,
Stella

Stella,
Thanks for the reply. I have installed emfield 6.x-1.0-beta1. It works fine. But If I try to integrate it with
lightbox2 by admin>>content type>> %Myconetnt% >> displayfield
and changing teaser to Lightbox2: Image->Full Size Video

And I try to open the video i get this error "Sorry you need flash player installed"

To I took the following steps after reading the forums
1) Installed FLVPlayer.exe and put it in Lightbox2 video settings.
2) Installed SWFObject API.

But no luck still get the error.

Stella, I very much appreciate your help. Thanks in advance
