DHTML Video Popup - GoFuckYourself.com

MarkTiarra · 01-14-2009, 10:34 PM

We're thinking about doing a video popup on one of our tours. I made a temporary page to show what I mean... this won't be the actual video we use but I'm wondering what ya'll think of this? We seem to do better the more video heavy we make our tours and the idea of flying in a video like this has me on the fence in that it pops over the tour presentation. On the other hand... if a good video is doing the lions share of the selling then it's the move. Numbers will tell of course but I'm wondering if anyone else tried anything like this yet and if so did they like the results?

Helped a program do that in the past - i have no actual numbers, but my feelings was that it wasnt a good move...

by all means, try it out and tell me what you experience. But i myself at this point wouldnt do it again...

and of course im sur eyou know, mark... No autoplay with sound... bad for office porn surfers

Its not bad but I don't see how it would be any better than having the flash vid embedded, it makes the surfer click an extra time, unless perhaps it closed automatically when it was done.

Oh yeah for sure on the sound. I like the embedded Flash ones too. We've just gotta see numbers here really. If it works well it would save a redesign on some older tours to squeeze in vids.

What wrong with using lightbox or greybox See www.miniajax.com I personally like

Fancy Box
http://fancy.klade.lv/

or

jquery.multimedia-portfolio

Thickbox is another that I have used that works better than Lightbox with flash files.
