Hey there,First off. GREAT product!
Is there a way to link a video or image from within a marker.
I was doing this with Google maps before through HTML. It was a big pain, but it did work.
You can see some examples here of the way I was doing it:
maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&vps=1&jsv=304e&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=213008060443847648280.00049922c26a9af3d8ec9
And now here is how I am doing it using your product:

Please help....
OS Windows XP
Dreamweaver CS4
Thanks for your time
Spike

Hello Steve,
You can add a link, video or image HTML markup inside the info box. However for now the info box size cannot be adjusted so you will need to precise your content size according to the current dimensions of the info box.

Hi Steve,
I was indeed already looking for this cool option to have YouTube videos as markers in Google Maps.
However it is not yet implemented in the Google Maps API V3 that we use. But Google promises they will add it soon. So when it gets there we see if we can support it as well will be very cool indeed.
Greetings,
George

Thanks George,
Just to be clear, I am talking about having the video within the marker, not "as markers".
Also, can you add some text formatting options to better control the text?
Here is an example of what I am talking about.

Now it would seem I am having issues with not being able to select it from within Deamweaver.
It did show up as a plug-in module, now, It's there, but it only shows up as a empty box and I can not edit it.
I have about 220 map points so far and need a lot more...
Please help.
I would upload a image, but I don't see how to do that here
Thanks

I was able to edit it in code to fix this..
Not sure just what I did, but there were 15 "jQuery("#map1"" tables in the code. So I removed all of them but the top one and then it started to work again.
You can see the map here:
