Big play button icon in uploaded videos?

[Toni]

I’m going crazy and not knowing why the big “play” button icon didn’t appear when uploading a video (https://imgur.com/kiU1HI0). To other people it appearsr (see https://imgur.com/a/3bYaUH0). Exist any additional css for the big play button icon to appear?
Thanks and sorry for my bad english.

Hi there,

That’s a Gutenberg video block so you shouldn’t need any additional CSS.

Can you quickly switch to a twenty series WP theme and see if the button appears?

Let me know 🙂

I can not. I am online and there are 100 people on my site right now.

Looks like Gutenberg just doesn’t add a big play button for video block.

I just did a test with twenty twenty theme and the result can be seen here:

I think it can be customized by js and css,
here is some info,

Hi there,

It’s possible that the default style of HTML5 videos has changed since that screenshot.

It looks like javascript is needed to do that now. This should help: https://codepen.io/chrisnager/pen/jPrJgQ
