Remove cover image on youtube vids Rev Slider

[lizbonney]

This seems to be a new issue as previously I had rev-slider showing a series of youtube vids.

It now has to set a cover image, which is either youtube video poster or an image from library.

The problem is that this makes it jump from the poster to the video instead of just playing the youtube movies and using a still frame from the youtube movie.

Does anyone know how to disable the cover image?

thanks

Hi @lizbonney,

Thanks for reaching out.

Yes, I do notice that behavior too especially if the internet is a bit slow. Unfortunately, the cover image isn’t something you can remove. It’s required upon adding the video ID and it’s slider’s restriction.

BUT, you’ll add your youtube video as a video layer instead of slider background, then you can simply leave the cover image empty.

Though, jumping can’t be completely eliminated, it happens even on actual Youtube video without the slider.

Thanks!
