Feature Request: a lightbox-style pop-up
Has anyone had success using one that already exists? A Google search for a compatible lightbox script has returned to me many results where folks have had issues but no results with successful attempts. Perhaps it would be best to add this as a feature of the player? It could work like this: we would be able to choose a lightbox-style popup as our embed option (like Fancybox or others). Using that option, mediaelement would then place the poster image (at whatever size we would specify) into the page as a clickable screenshot that pops up the video player in a lightbox. Users should still be able to click full screen if they wish.

Because I'm not a javascript programmer, I don't know how much work this would be or how to go about doing it myself. So, if this is a ridiculously hard thing to do, please just ignore! However, if you're able to do it, this would give mediaelement.js and distinct edge over other players IMO.
