Tried RokBox which was awesome until I discovered it didn't show .mov video in certain browsers like Safari.Multimedia Box was so simple. Once I installed the plugin...I couldn't beleive all you had to do is link the movie.
What I truly miss, was the ability to have albums and forward and back switches in the movies.
Bottom line: It worked for me in Firefox and Safari.
Thanks everyone involved!

We're lead to beleive that {mbox:...} is how to use your plugin, but with ANY external video, this is not the case. The wording in your support forum is a little confusing, no where in the posts regarding this matter do you explicitly say "for external video, do not use the {mbox:...} tag, do it this way..." While you do show the way to do, there is no explanation as to why it is different than using the tag.
For future reference to all users who want to use this with external video (youtube, etc...):
- You need to use an anchor tag - text or image and the plugin will automatically do what it is supposed to

I installed almost every other youtube mod, this is the only that worked for me without errors using IE 7 very easy right out of the box. I wish they included better info on how to for streaming. Or just maybe it's me. Either way it WORKS and works good..
This is excellent plugin. It gives your website a web 2 appearance. I love the Lightbox effect.
I just hope that the author update the plugin to support flash video formats (flv, swf).
if it is possible to display a (loading...) message while the video file is being download to the user browser because for users with slow internet connection would be confusing to see nothing is happening while the file is being downloaded over the internet.
Thanks and keep the good job

This is an awesome plugin! I had a little teething problems with firstly getting it to work, but support was excellent with helping me sorting it out.
Now it's working beautifully!
