As I mentioned in another thread, the actual toolbar seems kind of obtrusive.

But you may want to consider reworking the splash page (or the others too, but definitely the splash page).

http://yobiz.com has a nice splash page. Headline, subhead, video on the left, benefits on the right, all above the fold.

http://icontact.com has a smart layout. The first thing you see is social proof in the form of testimonials + actual, non professional pictures and real benefits for real people on each slide.

Thanks for the feedback. What could be done, in your opinion, to make it less obtrusive?

Maybe it's not too obtrusive. I can't sit around at work and watch full videos (especially one with lots of random stops). So I tried to make some guesses about the toolbar.

One thing I would certainly do is get some audio in the video and remove the pauses.

How about a gallery of screenshots with captions at the bottom?

Did you try the toolbar out?
