I'm setting a splash image via the background setting on the Flowplayer 3 configuration. It shows up and then fades out quickly as the semi-transparent play button fades in. I've manually set up FP3 on a static HTML page before and the way the splash image was set was with a playlist where the first item was the splash image, second was the video. That worked fine.
In the source of the drupal page, I see that it's not being set as a playlist, but as the backgroundimage. Am I just going about this incorrectly? If so, what use is the background image configuration?
