I can't tell what is more gaudy. Keeping the video the same size and overlaying an image with a transparent background, or shrinking everything with some obtrusive weird colored border to make it look like a 90's web page. But at the end of the day, I think it's relatively non intrusive, especially if dismissible while keeping the video paused.
