Hey Ced
I'm working through the issue of accessibility (huge deal over here in the US). One of the issues I've come up with is the use of a title for videos. The text from the scan says:
"All <code>frame</code> elements in a document must provide valid <code>title</code> attributes. When frames are not titled, it becomes difficult for users of assistive technologies to move between frames in order to access the page content they wish to view. When a document provides untitled frames, assistive technology may instead choose to render other information to the user, such as the framed document's file name, in an attempt to help the user to understand the frame's purpose. In most instances, this is not likely to work, as the file's name may not be indicative of its purpose, nor descriptive of its content."
I don't see a way in the PB video module to add this. Can this be added?

A good landing is one you can walk away from.
A great landing is one where you can reuse the aircraft!

Hi
first question, how are you loading your video ? is this a local file on your server, or a hosted video (like on youtube) ?

Oh sorry Ced, it's on YouTube. Also noticed, though I assigned a poster image it didn't show. Are there specific sizes for it?

I will check for the iframe title

Ahhh right-o. Thanks for the heads up with the poster image. I just (erroneously) assumed it was the panacea for all evils!!
