I'm trying to get Fancybox to play my Vimeo-videoalbum (which consists of 1 video). The thumbnail's showing up, but Fancybox is not playing. I've tried Fancybox as default player in the tubepress settings to no avail, afterwards also added it to the shortcode:
[tubepress playerLocation="fancybox" mode="vimeoAlbum" vimeoAlbumValue="1936861"]

Any suggestions?

Hi,

This is a known bug. There are two workarounds. The first is to prevent your theme from loading FancyBox on its own. Currently it's loading it from http://www.savertart...nt....4.pack.js. You'd have to dig into your theme's templates to perform this edit.

The second workaround is to do the following:

• Open up sys/ui/static/players/fancybox/fancybox-dev.js with your favorite text editor
  
  
• Around lines 33-34 you'll see
  
  

  jQuery.getScript(path + 'jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.js', function () {}, true);
  TubePressCss.load(path + 'jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css');

  You'll want to comment those out so it looks like this:
  
  

  //jQuery.getScript(path + 'jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.js', function () {}, true);
  //TubePressCss.load(path + 'jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css');

• Swap the contents of sys/ui/static/players/fancybox/fancybox-dev.js with sys/ui/static/players/fancybox/fancybox.js

Either of those should get TubePress working for you. Please give it a try and let us know. Thanks!

Thanks, Eric. That did the trick!
Got another question though, If I want larger thumbnails, then the text below the thumb disappears, as if it's outside the viewport.
Is thumbnail size limited to 90 x 120?
PS: Sorry, forget it, you already provided a solution:

I too am experiencing this issue.
I am unable to play a video specifying that the YouTube videos play through Shadowbox or Fancybox either. Videos will play through Tinybox, popup and normal for example. I have taken your suggestion of changing and swapping the PHP code (as above), but still to no avail. The TubePress plugin was bought, downloaded and installed today. Can you please help me?

Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

Could you share a link to your gallery so I could take a first-hand look? Sounds like there's a JavaScript problem somewhere, but it should be relatively easy for me diagnose remotely. Thanks!
