What exactly do you mean by 'floating' video player?
Do you mean 'sticky'? In that case, you can put the video on a sticky layer.

Can I make the video in the sticky layer smaller and place it to the left side of the screen when the visitor scrolls down the page?

Here's a good example of what I need to create in Webbuilder. Can I do this with the RZ media player? Is there a way to do this with webbuilder self?

The link you provided is to a custom script (paid). You can of course do something similar in WB with the exciting tools / objects namely the sticky object and the HTML5 Video or YouTube. If this doesn't suit your needs then you will need to implement a custom script like the one you have shown.

I use Amazon AWS for my video hosting and great to hear that your extension can do the job, However, in the past, I bought several extensions from your website, but every time when Webbuilder went to a new version, I had to buy your extensions all over. Does this extension come with free updates?

I have tried it with the tools in WB, but none of them do the job unless I missed something?

this is not true!
if new features are implemented in a new version of the extension you will need to pay for an upgrade
besides this i do not remember that a new wb version makes an existing extension incompatible
usually new wb versions run extensions made during previous versions

As mentioned you can achieve something similar but not exactly as the method on the url you provided is custom made for that site. If you require this exactly then you will require a custom script (paid)

3 or 4 years ago I bought the Paralax extension. At one point it did not work anymore and I had to buy a new one.

lol from several to one extension....
to the extension you mention have been introduced important changes and several improvements therefor you will need to pay for them if you want to implement these new features on your site
if you dont want them you can still use the previous version unless wb implemented other changes that make an extension incompatible
anyhow pablo has been working hard to preserve backward compatibility and every issue i reported to him he fixed them
so the case is closed

ps i dont have any record about you as a customer

Can we please keep this to the original subject matter which is how to do the following
"Floating video-player when scrolling down" and not what extension(s) may or may not have been bought previously and are they updated freely or not!!
