 * I have set up a video that works great with no lightbox, but when I set either
   a Link or a Thumbnail I get a** Click to open video** shortcut (in Thumbnail 
   mode also) and the video is shown as if I had Lightbox set to none. Additionally,
   a lightbox never opens when I click the link. However, the player on the page
   has a close X in the upper left corner, as if it is a lightbox, kind of.
 * Am I doing something wrong here? Do I need asseverate Lightbox plugin? Or some
   other configuration? And, is the link text controllable? At a bare minimum I 
   would want the text to be the video name, rather than generic Click here.
 * I am using version 1.13 and the v6 script, as the v5 script does even worse with
   Lightboxes, as the player on the page is only about 5% of the hight it should
   be.
 * Thanks!

 * Ok, I found the problem and fix it. I am waiting on feedback on another ticket
   before I can release the next update. You can download and use the fixed version.

 * Please use FTP to replace the files as the data will be deleted if you uninstall

 * Ulrich, that’s awesome, thank you! I have the download, but I am also on a big
   deadline this weekend and probably won’t get a chance to play with this before
   early next week. I’ll keep my eyes open for the “official” update as well.
