   If you ever use a video in a slideshow, and live it playing when you acces next image, the previous video is still playing...
   This is also happening in the portfolio from the home , so when you watch a video from one project and you go to next project it dosen't stop...

   Hi,
   We use the standard wordpress embed function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds to display the videos inside the portfolio. This function uses the video url to retrieve the youtube/vimeo, etc. player code by using the oembed protocol. The problem is that the players are displayed within iframes afterwards and we have no control over the user input (we can't say if an user started the video or stopped it or if he clicked on a video thumbnail, etc.) and we also can't control the videos/players itself. So if an user starts a video it will play and we can't force the player or youtube to stop it.
