Improved Video Options

Option for better custom video controls by implementing a framework like Plyr or Videojs onto the Bricks GUI.

Similar concept to how you already use Splide.js for the nestable sliders.

Benefits:

  • Very flexible options for Youtube, Vimeo and mp4.
  • Ability to use Youtube videos without loads of branding all over them, and tweaking their looping mode so the end frame is not flashing black
  • More flexibility for browser support and using a js framework to enhance options available such as autoplay and muted when playing adding video backgrounds

Systems like Divi and Elementor have had robust HTML video players for a long while to cover things like this off - and whilst I would prefer to keep it raw and simple, it’s clear there are a lot of limitations to this for overall platform compatibility sadly.

Bricks uses Plyr iirc. You should be able to customize the options via js if anything not available in the GUI.

If bricks uses plyr, do you have any recommendations how to create an audio player with a playlist from CPT?
