Portfolio Posts (Video) Not Showing Featured Image

I would like to use the portfolio template for organizing photos where the images are clickable and then play a video automatically, opening up a lightbox window, or on another page, preferrably the former. I’ve seen on your Virtue demo, where a person can click on the small search icon for the lightbox video. I could not get this to work. Also, is it possible to have the lightbox come up without having to click on the small search icon?
Here’s what I did on the unsuccessful attempt at getting the video to appear from the portfolio template. I entered “Project Layout” with Three Rows, “Columns” with Three Column, under project summary I selected “Image with video lightbox (must be url)”, and with “If Video Project – Video Url” I entered the url from Youtube that I have modified start and end times and added the autoplay. Here it is: *Login to see link
I also have a featured image and a portfolio type selected. When selecting the project options as a video, the featured image does not appear at all. If I select the image option, I do not see a way to execute the video. The answer may be obvious one that I am not seeing right now.

Thanks for your help.
