Can I choose an image to show in the video player? 

You can create a picture to load in the video player for EdComm videos. Here's the steps for that.

  1. First you'll need to create an image to be the initial video frame. It needs to be the same size as the video (so, 575 x 323 pixels as it is on your page).
  2. You'll need to upload this image to CommonSpot and copy the full URL to the image (including the "http://" part).
  3. In the CommonSpot video element, add this line to the settings: startimage=YOUR_IMAGE_URL Where you'll replace YOUR_IMAGE_URL with the URL you copied in step 2.

RESULT: You see the image in the video element.
