使用LightGallery在iframe中加载SWF文件？

Question

I am using lightGallery to load videos into an iframe that gets embeded in the lightgallery popup.

Problem is if I provide non-HTML5-videos for old browsers, using my own flash player, the iframe stays empty (black). If I open the video in a new tab, instead of lightgallery, it loads without any problem.

The web developer console is empty, which is my biggest problem, since I cannot track down the error. Note, everything is on the same domain.

Example code from within the iframe:

<object id="videoPlayerObject" name="videoPlayerObject" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0" width="1021" height="770">
    <param name="movie" value="vid/video_player.swf">
    <param name="flashvars" value="flv=filename.flv&amp;width=1021&amp;height=770">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always">
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
    <param name="salign" value="lt">
    <embed id="videoPlayerEmbed" name="videoPlayerEmbed" src="vid/video_player.swf" flashvars="flv=filename.flv&amp;width=1021&amp;height=770" allowFullScreen="true" width="1021" height="770" allowScriptAccess="always" salign="lt" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>
</object>

I have also tried swfobject, but the same problem.

Can anybody help me? How can I find out more about the error? Unfortunately the developer is not answering on github.

PS: I tried the same iframe embed with fancybox, there it works. So it must be lightgallery that has some problems with flash files.

Got it working! Add wmode opaque to the object:

<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

Then it shows up!
