cover image youtube video

Hi,
I have a problem with the cover image for youtube video.
On slider layout there is a black screen instead the cover image. On vimeo video everything is fine.
I check the html code of the page for see where the problem is and I find that in the div of the cover image there is a style="display:none;" active only on youtube video.

how can I remove the "display:none" from the code?
Thank you

    Hello:-)

    That is for sure for a reason and it is put by JavaScript. Can you show me your album so I could see what is going on?

    With ind regards.

    Thanks for link:-)

    I think it is caused by autoplay option of album . For now you can try to deactivate it and meanwhile I will try to debug it and fix it :-)

    Thanks for posting! I will reply here later.

    With kind regards.
  • deactivate autoplay (both sider and video) but nothing change

    Hello :-)

    Sorry for such delay, Friday afternoon had disaster and I didn't had any time left to debug it.

    I have found that code that we added for touch devices, so they could play youtube video when cover is active, is now making this issue.

    If you go to line ~1134 and remove this code
    			if(state === -1){
    //show video, so user can see it is loading
    actual_slide.children().not('.video-poster').css('opacity',1);
    actual_slide.find('.video-poster').fadeOut(minorHideTime);
    }
    Then It will be fixed for desktop devices. I have to however find other solution for touch devices in that case.

    Thanks for reporting this!

    With kind regards.
