    Is it possible to pause the slider on video play? The slider keeps going and make it difficult to watch the videos.

    Thanks,
    Jesper

    Hey Jesper,

    Excellent question. With video the best bet is to use the previous/next arrows in the slideshow and set it to not autoplay. That way the user won’t lose the video to another slide while it’s playing.

    Another alternative is to make a screenshot of the video and use it in a slide that links to the actual video.

    It is technically possible to pause the slider with YouTube or Vimeo videos, but it will take some coding. If you’re feeling adventurous with javascript, there’s a post at https://github.com/woothemes/FlexSlider/issues/346 that goes through some of this a bit.

    Take care,
    Bill
