Video Id

This field can be used for the Video ID. You will only need to enter the video's specific ID and not its entire URL when using the Source drop-down selector. Optionally, you can leave the Source field blank and enter the full video URL into this field.

This is the width of the video being displayed. The default is 640px.

This is the aspect ratio of the video and will be used to calculate the video height based on the Width value. The Aspect Ratio is set by selecting it from a drop-down selector. The default is 16/9.

Show Popup Button

The Show Popup Button toggle will enable the display of a button for auction website visitors to click to make the video a free floating "picture-in-picture" style element on the website. This is disabled by default.

This is the default width of the video after the visitor to the website has clicked the Enter picture-in-picture mode button.

NOTE

Although you can set the Default Popup Width value to be very wide the pop-up video will be contained appropriately within the current browser window.

Enter picture-in-picture mode Button Label

The Show Popup Button label text can be modified as needed to provide a label more relevant to your event with this property. The default is Enter picture-in-picture mode.
