In this version, I

-Fixed a few small bugs with the options panel.

-The new lightbox mode stretches the video to fit the page.

-Added a close button for the lightbox.

-Re-enabled the support for pagerization.

-When the lightbox opens, other embed or object elements now become hidden. This had to be done because some of these elements would overlap with the box, creating annoying problems. Of course, when you close the box, you can see those elements again.

-Fixed the check for the links, now it looks for the beginning of the href attribute of links, instead of anywhere. This fixes a few problems with google, stumbleupon, etc.

New support for:
