    Hi,
    This should be easy , right?
    I have hidden the controls but want to hide the play button centered on the video player. You tube has a poster image that it is able to display. How do I use that poster image? How can I use one of my own?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi There,

    Thank you for writing in! You can only use a custom poster for the Video Player element. YouTube video needs to be in Embedded Video element and YouTube videos has its own poster/thumbnail which you can not customize.

    Maybe you can replicate what the other user is doing here: https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/multiple-lightbox-videos-on-single-page-playing-at-same-time/

    Linking an image to play the YouTube video on a lightbox.

    Cheers!
