Typing cursor and mouse cursotr on videos

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Typing cursor and mouse cursotr on videos

  • Martin 9 years, 1 month ago

    Hi,

    I really love your plugin, and it works great for my HLS needs! I have a few issues though:

    1. Every time I click “play” on a video, a typing blinking cursor is showing on the top part of the video. It is very annoying and even in full-screen it stays. I there a way for me to attach screenshots?

    2. Can we hide the mouse cursor after a while, like when user is not moving his mouse for 10secs or so? This is a must have to me, cause having a mouse cursor over the video subject is really unprofessional.. Thanks

    3. Request for future version (fullscreen button at the bottom right corner):
    Is there an easy way to move the fullscreen button to the bottom right of the player, after the volume control? All my customers are looking for it or get lost to exist fullscreen.
    I would love an easy option in the admin on future versions where this could be set. Fullscreen on the bottom is a standard that most people are used to, and therefore very key to me. Thanks.

    PS: I’m under the pro version.

    Thank you so much,

    Martin

    Hello Martin,

    1) Blinking cursor – could you please send over the URL of your page where we can see it?

    2) Cursor hiding – you can try a CSS like this (just put it to your theme stylesheet or custom CSS field):

    .flowplayer.is-mouseout {
    cursor: none;
    }

    3) Fullscreen button position – we had the same question here, please have a look: https://foliovision.com/support/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/how-to/customize-skin

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,

    I’m launching the website were I purchased the pro player next week, and I would love to have that blinking typing cursor out of the way asap.

    Since I don’t know how to send you credentials for my coming soon website, I’ve setup fv freeplayer on another website (other theme, other plugins) and the issue is still there, please check the link below:

    Hi,

    About the blinking cursor, it turns out I was on “caret browsing”, so I just had to press F7 (mac Fn+F7) and now no more typing cursor.. lol.. sorry for that one!

    You can close the topic if you wish :-) Thanks for your time

    Hello Evélina,

    sorry about not responding to your last messages. We had a bad IT day when you email were not working and it appears I haven’t realized there are pending messages to check.

    Thank you for the tip, there are always some weird shortcuts in the computers.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,

    No worries, plus we had discussed more by email directly, where you asked for my user agent. When I saw it was only happening on my firefox I started to chill, and then found that trick earlier today.. Thanks for your reply, I love your player, and you look like a nice team!

    Cheers!
