Can somebody tell somebody to remove the white play button from the video player screen!

Every time i pause the video to try and catch up with the instructor, that white play button is blocking out all the code im trying to read!! Change the opacity or something. Thank you.

Hey Jacob,

It may just be a browser setting on your system. I don't get any arrow, or any other obstruction, on the screen when I pause the videos.

If you pause it on full screen it won't show but as soon as the window is at certain number of px it will. I usually have my video lesson going on the left of my screen and workspaces on the right so its split down the middle.

Looks like you'll have to do it yourself. Just right click on the play button and inspect element. Uncheck the display:block line of css code and it'll disappear. Now stop crying and put your team treehouse knowledge to good use!

    display: block !important;
