BigVideo.js

The jQuery Plugin for Big Background Video (and Images)

Find out everything you need to know about how to use this plugin on its demo page at http://dfcb.github.com/BigVideo.js.

Installation

If you're using Bower (and you should be!) installing BigVideo and its dependencies is simply:

bower install BigVideo.js

This downloads and installs BigVideo to the bower_components folder. Add to your page the usual way with script tags, or using RequireJS.

If you'd rather download things manually, you can grab the latest zip from that lovely button on the right (or this link). You will also need the dependencies:

RequireJS

If RequireJS is detected, BigVideo.js defines itself as an anonymous module. Require it as:

require(['path/to/bigvideo'], function(bigvideo) {
	// do stuff here
});

Make sure your require config is set up correctly; an example configuration is as follows:

require.config({
	paths: {
		"BigVideo": "bower_components/BigVideo.js/lib/bigvideo",
		"jquery": "bower_components/jquery/jquery",
		"jquery-ui": "bower_components/jquery-ui/ui/jquery-ui",
		"videojs": "bower_components/video.js/video",
		"imagesloaded": "bower_components/imagesloaded/imagesloaded",
		"eventEmitter/EventEmitter": "bower_components/eventEmitter/EventEmitter",
		"eventie/eventie": "bower_components/eventie/eventie"
	},
	shim: {
		"videojs": {exports: 'videojs'}
	}
});

This is to ensure that BigVideo and all its dependencies get the right paths, and that RequireJS knows how to reference Video.js.
