Hi there,

The UI/loading features of the player is 100% controlled by the browser. You'll notice that if you open your page in a different browser, the MP4 player will look different. Because of this, there is no way to control the interface as that is not managed by the theme/design (no CSS access).

Hope that helps!

Best,

Christopher

Hi Chris. I ment the loading Icon while you wait to load and playback the video.
when the video is not loading you get a wheel icon animated in youtube and vimeo.

That time waiting for the video to load and just a black screen is an issue. Nothing happens so people don't know if the video is loading and is going to start or if there's something wrong.

Is there a way (plugin or css) for that icon?

thanks

Hi there,

I'm not sure I understand the question. Can you provide a link to your site? It would help be get an idea of what you're referring to.

Best,

Christopher

Christ When I playback my server stored mp4 videos, there is nothing happening to prevent viewer to think that the page is dead.
Is there a way to add this youtube/vimeo feature?

best regards
