Hi,

in order to play a Video I have to click on the video and after that I have to click play video... is it possible to just click on the video and play it?

 

Best Regards

Loaky

Hi, have you noticed the play buttons that overlay the poster?

 

Try hovering the mouse over a poster. Thanks !

yes, after hovering for 2 seconds a play button appears but that is too slow.. right click and play is faster but annoying.

I changed it myself... it is not perfect but it works.

 

I open list.js and changed overlayPlayButton: !1 to overlayPlayButton: !0  so instead of the "more menu" the play button appears.

And after that I changed the CSS for the playbutton in card.css so it will take up the entire thumb.  So now I can click on the thumbs and the videos start playing. :-)

You will have to do this with every server update as these files get replaced.

 

You are better off finding a custom css route that won't be affected by updates.

well it is a workaround... It would be easier if it would be implemented in a proper way.

Well there are more posts out there disliking this feature all together. I myself just removed the button via custom css as I can't stand it.

Tell me how to do that. The thing is really annoying me. I click play by accident, then when I click the back arrow, it keeps playing grrrrr.

 

How do I get rid of it?

 

Sorry, I shouldn't hijack the thread :)

/*Remove Play Indicator*/
.cardOverlayFab-primary {display: none !important}

Don't suppose there's any way to turn the single click into a double one ?

no that would only be possible if the single click does something like selecting the Video. If 1 click gets you to another page it is impossible to know that you clicked 2 times.

Something like this

#childrenContent i {display: none;}

this also removes the star indicator for rating and all the icons on the far right

Here you go

/*Remove Play Icon*/
#childrenContent .listItemImageButton-icon {display:none; }

Note this does not prevent playing when clicking on image.

thanks better than nothing, helps a lot

 

to show this only on hover would be better than seeing it always on every item

:) Okay something like this.

/*Display play button on hover for Season list items*/
#childrenContent .listItemImageButton-icon {display:none; }
#childrenContent div.listItemImage.listItemImage-large.itemAction.lazy:hover .listItemImageButton-icon {display:flex; }

Any idea anyone how to make this work on iOS?

It works on Windows browser but no joy on iOS (app & browser) - I assume because there is no "hover" action.

With my limited knowledge I guess it should work if the overlay simply stays there on top of thumbnail - without any "hover" needed (?)

Thanks
