1) Go to wp-admin/appearance/widgets and place an empty text widget into the Header widget panel on the right.
You should keep the height of the video (h) at 200px or less,.. you could go higher but it can rob you of page real estate because the expands the height of the entire header. Then paste in your video embed code.
Just by placing this widget you will see the video appear instead of CTA arrow when you refresh page.
NOTE: If you perform the above action and place the video into the default Header widget then it will override the CTA arrow/box on all pages that display the CTA arrow/box. If you wish the video to only show on specific pages then you should paste it into one of the 15 "Custom Sidebar" widgets and then assign that widget to the "header widget" checkbox in the LBSB Page Options in the page editor for the page you're working on.

2) You will notice that the menu nav tabs have now lifted up high under the header text and thats because the text header styling is preset to 70px high. To remedy this you should create a graphic header of 200px high and insert it via the control panel in the "header" tab.

That's about all there is to the process but if you get stuck or have questions just leave a reply on this thread.]]> Here are the very simple steps to inserting a video in the header widget of LBSB.

These are controlled from the *Header tab inside the LBSB Central Control Panel.

1) Use the default custom text effect fonts to create a main headline and a sub-headline (optional) to describe the title of the website. You can choose from a variety of font styles, colors special effects such as shadow, mirror and outline.

2) Upload a header image (defined as header "logo") which will override any text/font settings and just display the header/logo graphic (your default header text settings will be retained in case you choose to deactivate the graphic header). Make sure that the header/logo image is no wider than 660px as the theme styling will only display that width. That leaves a header space to the right of approximately 282px which is the styling area designated to the CTA arrow box & header widget.
N.B. In LBSB 3.5 there is a "Full Width" header option which will extend the header image area to 970px. In such instances, and where the header image extends to the right side of the full header width, you will need to remove the CTA arrow box or any header widgets which would overlay the header image.

3) If you wish to have a full width header for either boxed or full width styling then you need to create your header as a "background" and upload it using the "header background" upload field.

IMPORTANT: You can make your header logos/graphics as high as you want (default is 70px,.. but you could go to 200px+ if you like) but the width is fixed at 660px for the reasons stated in "2)" above. The menu tabs will always be pushed down the the lowest position sitting just above the page contents.
Please Note: If you use a custom header widget that has a higher sized content (such as a video with a 200px height) ... and you are also using the default text effect header headline or a header graphic of say 120px high, then the menu buttons will not be pushed down and may look suspended. The only way to rectify that is to create a header/logo graphic that's at least the same height as the header widget, or if you really only wanted say a 120px high header graphic then you can create it as a 200px high .png (clear) graphic and just delete the background for the lower 80px height of the graphic across its entire width. That way, the browser will call the 200px high header graphic and thus push the menu tabs into position, and the natural header background will show through thus making it all look very natural.]]> There are 3 primary header options
