Treehouse Guest Teacher@margaret if you move your mouse away the video then the bottom bar should disappear automatically.

1,269 PointsHi everyone, I have the same problem as Magaret. I'm using Google Chrome and the bar doesn't disappear. Really boring.
I have a temporary solution by doing a right click when the video is stopped on the time bar to open the developper tools (inspect the element), and suppress the div called mejs-controls. With a control + Z , I can put back in place the time bar after.
Treehouse is awesome, but this little problem affect the user experience. I will send this request at help@teamtreehouse.com .
Thanks.

13,129 PointsI solved it in Chrome using an extension called Stylebot, to activate the User Applied to pages then I made a rule like this,
.mejs-container .mejs-controls {
background: rgba(56,64,71,0.98);
bottom: 0px;
right: 30px;
width: auto;
height: 40px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-ms-border-radius: 5px;
-o-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 0 1px inset,rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 5px 5px;
-moz-box-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 0 1px inset,rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 5px 5px;
box-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 0 1px inset,rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0 0 5px 5px;
opacity: 0.4;
}
