HTML5 video remove overlay play icon
android, android-webview, html5-video
Solution
If you said about this picture
This is picture I had when tested my app on Android 6.0.
You can hide this picture. For example:
WebView mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.web_view);
mWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClientCustomPoster());
Chrome client class:
private class WebChromeClientCustomPoster extends WebChromeClient {
@Override
public Bitmap getDefaultVideoPoster() {
return Bitmap.createBitmap(10, 10, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
}
}

Problem
How do I remove the overlay play icon (triangle) that's visible in the center of the video for a second or so every time a video starts playing in an Android WebView? Thanks in advance!
