    Hey guys! So, I know this is probably outside the scope of a normal question... But since we have a bunch of Genesis experts on here, I figured someone might be able to help. Left the question on the plugin's wall, but nothing... I've tried a few different plugins to get video as my background. I've only had success with one... mb.ytplayer... And this one wouldn't put the video on the main page of the site. It has the ability to do a site wide video, and also a per page or post video. When I use the plugin on an individual page it works great! You can see it working here... http://comedycodes.com/index.php/sample-page/

    But when I go into the basic settings and tell it to play the video on the main page (it has settings to work whether it's static, a blog page, or both) and no matter what I put, it doesn't work. I'm guessing it's because the Magazine theme is using a widgeted front page rather than just the standard "just show blog posts" but I'm not sure. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work on the main page as well?

    Thanks! Much appreciated.
