Disable lightbox grouping for accessibility

    I’m using the FV Flowplayer plugin on a site that needs to be 508-compliant, and the lightboxed videos (presumably using an embedded version of Colorbox) are stealing the focus so that the keyboard controls are not working on the video.

    Is there a filter or method to disable trapFocus and grouping in the video lightbox?

    Thanks

    Hello Twig,

    thank you for the suggestion, we disabled lightbox keyboard controls if the lightbox contains a video which is playing. Without this fix when you played a video and tried to seek forward using keyboard it would skip to the next lightbox item, if there was any. This improvement will be part of the next release.

    Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link and let us know how it works for you? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with out plugin, no settings now videos will be lost.

    Please also check our support forums at https://foliovision.com/support

    Thanks!
