hidden player video controls with scripting

russell

Hi,

I inherited a course that uses some scripting to play a video. The video plays without showing the play/pause button. I would like to change the script to show the controls but I don't know if this is the script that controls that?

Here's the script:
<table width="268">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="268">attachMediaPlayer("videoDiv","media/osj_launch.mp4",980,640,"no");</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>$(".mejs-controls").css("visibility","hidden");</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Can anyone tell me if this script hides the controls and if so, how to change it so that the player controls are visible?

 

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

In attachMediaPlayer you can try changing "no" to "yes".  You may just get lucky

Otherwise, take a look here:

The player controls are in a DIV with the class "mejs-controls".

$(“.mejs-controls”).css(“visibility”,”hidden”);

is code to make them invisible. You can delete it or change "hidden" to "visible".
