An overview of your options in customizing the look and functionality of your Video Cloud players.

Custom themes give you fine-grained control over the appearance of your video player templates. Using BEML and custom SWF files, you can control the look and feel of nearly every part of our players. For example, you can customize the player icon set, change button states, and even tweak the opacity of player elements. This document will walk you through the basics of how to create and apply custom themes.

Managing Player Templates

Once you've added your custom player template in the Publishing module, you can create any number of instances of your custom player, just as you can with the standard Video Cloud player templates. This topic describes how you can also edit a custom template, copy a template, or delete a template.
