i do like the lightbox approach because when i am watching a video, i like to focus on the video. dimming out the rest of the screen really helps cut down on the noise of a site and it makes me absorb the video content better... makes sense to me. though, i also sometimes like to have a popup video opened so i can browse and watch. it usually depends on the type of content and my mood.

We used to use this technique to display video on FireAnt.tv, but we
decided to scrap that method for a number of reasons. It ended up
being a rather confusing interface, it often caused problems in
different browsers, and it made it harder for people to link directly
to videos to bookmark them, etc.
Just my opinion...
