Remove “Copy link” and YouTube logo

Hello Uwe,

thank you for reaching out to us!

To disable the link button, just go to Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Sitewide FV Player Defaults and check the “Disable Video Links” box.

As for disabling YouTube logo, go to Settings-> FV Player Pro -> Hosting -> YouTube and enabled the “Remove logo” feature. However, please be aware that using this feature is against YouTube’s TOS and could lead to possible repercussions for you.

Thanks,
Maria

Hello Uwe,

I tested this issue and after following instructions Maria gave you, the link link really disppeared. But are you talking about “embed” button? Because that one was still there, even after disabling video links. If the embed button is the issue, go to: settings -> FV Player PRO -> sitewide FV Player defaults -> Disable Embed Button. This should be working,

Thanks,
Pavel

Hello Uwe,

sadly, your image did not come through.

We are not able to reproduce the issue. Please, rather send us a sample link to such an video, so we could test it hands-on.

Thanks,
Maria

Hello Uwe,

I see. We misunderstood, thinking you were talking about FV Player’s own linking button. Yes, the option to remove YouTube logo removes all YouTube elements. I’m glad the issue got solved.

Thanks,
Maria

Hello Uwe,

the setting works globally currently.

However, I can see how making this an individual setting could be possibly beneficial. I will contact our development team to see, what they think about it.

Could you please tell us your reason for wanting the ability to toggle this for individual videos? It will help our development team with the decision.

Thanks,
Maria

Hi Uwe,

I’d recommend you use other hosting for videos where you don’t want to show the YouTube logo. It’s possible to remove YouTube logo but it’s account wide.

Setting it up with multiple options or options per video would be confusing and dangerous (some people would lose their YouTube accounts by accident sooner or later). If you’d like us to set this up as a feature for your site, we could do so as custom development at $500. Even then I recommend you find other non-branded hosting for these videos. Vimeo Pro is $200/year for more or less unlimited hosting.

Cordial regards, Alec

Hello Uwe,

I do not remember seeing such display issues with FV Player.

Please post a link to the page (you can create a test page with password which you send to us and we won’t publish it) where we can see the issue.

Thanks,
Martin
