 * Hi there,
 * I am trying to make a button on my slider saying “Watch Video” that opens a video
   player window to play a video rather than just a link to the videos destination,
   any ideas how I can do this and what plugin I might need?
 * Thanks

 * This still hasnt worked for me, if you go to our website [http://potsandpansplayoff.com](http://potsandpansplayoff.com)
   and click the “watch video” button it still opens the youtube video off site,
   we want the video to open it a little box so that they are still on our website
