Player Size
You can set the player size setting width

parameters.
Auto Play
Add autoPlay: true
if you want the video to automatic play after page load.
Auto Play when Visible

. In case you want the player to play when it is full visible, autoPlayVisible: 'full'
.

Preload
In case you're loading a on demand video (mp4), it's possible to define the way the video will be preloaded according to preload attribute options. Add preload: <type>

gaAccount: 'UA-44332211-1',
gaTracker: 'MyPlayerInstance'

Media Control Auto Hide

Watermark
Put watermark: http://url/img.png
