Ok so,

I wanted to switch SonicSam.Net's videos all to flv.

And I would be playing them with this plugin

http://www.channel-ai.com/blog/plugins/flv-embed/

Thing is, if they display on the page, it breaks the layout because the video is too big in size.


But, if you click 'Click here to play' on this page
http://sonicsam.net/videos/sonicsam-having-fun/

It then loads the WMV (Windows Media Player) inside that 'ThickBox' or 'LightBox' or whatever.

How would I get that flv player into a LightBox(ThickBox)

WordPress latest.

Does not work with WordPress.

I mean,

http://vpip.org does it :p.

See, it's just I dont want that flash video player :p.

Hmmm actually

one sec, reading this

EDIT:

NEVERMIND, Found a FLV Player that can go full screen, so I can make the video appear small, and if they want to see bigger they can go full screen :).
