Summary of Videos Cookie Events
#

1)  Video Played #

This event creates a cookie when the video is played. This is useful for making sure the popup will continue to be displayed until the user at least sees the video start. 

You can also do this automatically by selecting the checkbox labeled ‘Start Video When Popup Opens’ on the Popup Settings box — Videos tab.

2)  Video Paused #

This event creates a cookie when a visitor pauses the video player inside the popup.  An alternate action is to select the radio button labeled ‘Pause the video for easy resuming’ on the Popup Settings box — Videos tab.

3)  Video Ended #

This event creates a cookie when the popup video ends.
