Inspired by [Tubular] (http://www.seanmccambridge.com/tubular/)

Example: http://rochestb.github.io/jQuery.YoutubeBackground
360 Video Example: http://rochestb.github.io/jQuery.YoutubeBackground/360.html

Production Example: [www.cpbgroup.com] (http://cpbgroup.com)

jQuery plugin that lets you create background videos using youtube api

Put the script at the bottom of your markup right after jQuery:

``html


`

`html



`

Call the plugin function and your carousel is ready.

`javascript
$('#video').YTPlayer({
fitToBackground: true,
videoId: 'LSmgKRx5pBo'
});
`

Need to customize some CSS in order to make it a background


`css
#video{
position: relative;
background: transparent;
}

.ytplayer-container{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
z-index: -1;
}
`

Works with Youtube Javascript API

Youtube Javascript API Options

Any youtube option must be placed within the playerVars object.
`
$('#video').YTPlayer({
fitToBackground: true,
videoId: 'LSmgKRx5pBo'
playerVars: {
modestbranding: 0,
autoplay: 1,
controls: 1,
showinfo: 0,
branding: 0,
rel: 0,
autohide: 0,
start: 59
}
});
`

Access all of YouTube's API events and methods by using player:
`
var player = $('#background-video').data('ytPlayer').player;
player.pauseVideo();
player.playVideo();

player.addEventListener('onStateChange', function(data){
console.log("Player State Change", data);
});

`
