You’ll see that, once you click the red box, it loads up the Lightbox window however you can’t pause the video clip and the controller bar sits over the actual video itself. I have dimensions set to the movie size in the Actions palette plus I checked the box to add height for the controller bar since it is Quicktime. I am viewing this in Safari and Chrome and they both produce the same effect. I double checked video sizes and even added height without success.
What seems to be causing this? Tips, suggestions, solutions?
I am not having any issues with it here. It opens to a perfect size to
hold the movie and controller. Safari 5 on 10.5.8. What version of
QuickTime are you using there?

I’m looking at it in Safari 5.0.2 (5533.18.5). I don’t have Chrome on
my Mac. Do you have QuickTime Pro installed, or whatever that add-on
pack that allows editing is called now?

Hi DanJ
Just testing here Safari Version 5.0.2 (6533.18.5) and QT Version 10.0 (114) and the bottom of the movie is covered by the controller bar. As you say the controls don’t work. FireFox is OK though. Snow Leopard 10.6.4. Chrome shows the same symptoms as Safari.
I remember seeing this a while back as well. Never checked in Firefox but did see the issue in Safari 5.0.2 (6533.18.5) w/ QuickTime 10.0 (114) under 10.6.4.
Nicely done. I see what you’re saying here. Could you try Control-
clicking on the area where the controls are, and tell me if you see a
popup for QuickTime or if you actually see the Inspect Element control
meaning you’ve clicked on a covering DIV? You shouldn’t be, but I’d
like to rule that out.
I have a very micro one-size-fits-all lightbox I’ve deployed on a
couple of clients’ sites, but I haven’t action-ized it yet. Maybe it’s
time. It’s very tiny, doesn’t use Scriptaculous so the page size is
way smaller, and seems to be cross platform. It isn’t as wizzy as
Lightwindow, but it is tiny and all.

I have a video here Walt that should show you what I mean:
When I try and control click on it, it doesn’t show a right-click menu or anything. If I click on the white outer border then it shows up with Inspect Element.
Strange.
I’m looking forward to an alternative. Too bad this feature couldn’t be natively installed with the FW app.

Confirmed. The ‘Cancel’ link also appears to do nothing.
