This was posted a few months back on the Videos forum, but I figured I would post it here for the benefit of all.
1. Open this image in the IGB. Move it around and stretch the window so its the size of the video screen you want.
2. Open your favorite media player, and make sure its set to Overlay mode, which is in the video playback section of the preferences. Put the video player right on the section of the screen that your IGB window is.
3. Make sure EVE is in Windowed mode.
4. Enjoy!
I just watched Voices of a Distant Star "in the IGB" and it works flawlessly. Heck this way you can watch movies while mining without even alt-tabbing, or even watch the latest EVE video while searching for targets

why not just watch a video then, if you're in windowed mode? I do that all the time, i make sure overview or at least my shields are in view, and watch most vids, especially widescreen, with no problems.

Well yeah, if you have a large enough screen and want to use EVE at a low resolution.
You can also use a media player with Always On Top mode, but that means that it covers up the EVE interface; this way, the video is *behind* the interface, as it is effectively part of the IGB, which can be put in back of all other windows if you want.
Sure, its not perfect, but its convenient at least; and if you don't want to do it, just don't

Thats prett neat, I used to do the same kind of thing in wow for long raids. Kind of a lot of trouble to go through to watch a video in eve when you already have it in windowed mode however. Either way thanks Dark.

Uber Cool!!! 
P.S. Voices is soooo good, but so sad. Love the soundtrack.

Or you could get BSPlayer and minimize the console ;p
I found out about this nifty transparency bit when trying to get some screencaps of a movie, and actually when warping I sometimes have videos bleed through in some of the waves.

I just love how the tooltips look over the overlay
LE: any chance of getting that image to begin in the top left corner of the IGB, under the adress bar?

There's a trick to this--just scroll the image a bit in the IGB, and the image will actually rise a bit in the window. Its probably an IGB bug.

a simple html file with
Quote:
<body bgcolor="#100010"></body>
should do the same trick and has no scroll bars ;)
plus it's faster than loading a png and you can resize it as much as you want

the bgcolor works too. makes me cry cuz the video and sound are so choppy... my computer really needs to have a "accident" with a unknown power surge.
maybe after tax time if wife feeling generous.
:(
Team work is essential... It gives the other team something ELSE to shoot at!
