    Hello Kbk,

    Thank you for reaching out to us!

    Are you looking to hide the buttons?

    If by “forward” you mean the ten seconds forward/back button, this can be easily disabled in the settings. You’ll learn more here: https://foliovision.com/player/demos/rewind-button
    If by this you mean the next/previous button in playlists, you can disable it with this custom CSS: https://foliovision.com/player/faq-intro/css-tips-and-fixes#playlist-prev-next-buttons

    As for hiding all of video pause buttons and disabling their functioning, here are the CSS codes:
    Hide pause button from controlbar: https://foliovision.com/player/faq-intro/css-tips-and-fixes#controlbar-hide-pause-play
    Hide pause icon when playback is resumed: https://foliovision.com/player/faq-intro/css-tips-and-fixes#hiding-play-pause-load
    Disable the ability to start/stop video by clicking: https://foliovision.com/player/faq-intro/css-tips-and-fixes#prevent-pause-clicking-video

    I hope this helps. Let me know, if you need anything else.

    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hi Boo Kim,

    Thanks for the suggestions. We will add a Video Controls Display enhancement in the near future. For the Video Pause on Window Unfocused, we already have a similar feature called Prompt to Continue Watching. I’ve just written an article on why Prompt to Continue Watching is better for a learning site than pause on Window Unfocused and how to use it for LMS.

    Let me know if you have any further questions or suggestions.
