I am playing a m3u8 video in HTML5 video tag using HLS.js.

The video plays fine on clicking play button but until I click the play button the video player keeps on showing the black coloured loading spinner in the middle of the video player. I want to get rid of that spinner completely.

Can any one help me achieving this using JS or CSS or something else?

Thanks.

You'll need to set `HTMLVideoElement.controls` attribute on the `` to false to use your custom controls – Chukwuma Nwaugha Jul 17 '21 at 05:41
