Removing the play button in HTML video - javascript

I'm trying to put a video on my website with a customized button.
I have inserted the video element inside a div element with the ID = myVideo. Also, I created an image element with the ID = btnVideo. My idea is to make this image pause/play the video.
The problem is that the video has a play button on default. When I inspect the element, I see that this button is an SVG element.
I tried to use "myVideo.parentElement.lastChild.style.opacity = 0;" to make the element disappear (myVideo.parentElement.lastChild grabs this SVG element).
It works when the page is loaded, but after I pause the video, it's go back to opacity=1, even if I call this line of code again.
How could I make this element to stay hidden? Setting the opacity to 0 is the best approach?
My Javascript code is
var myVideo = document.getElementById("myVideo").firstChild;
var btnVid = document.getElementById("btnVideo");
myVideo.parentElement.lastChild.style.opacity = 0
btnVid.addEventListener('click', function playPause(e) {
if (myVideo.paused)
myVideo.play();
else
myVideo.pause();
console.log(myVideo.parentElement.lastChild.style.opacity)
myVideo.parentElement.lastChild.style.opacity = 0;
e.preventDefault();
});
Thank you very much for your time!

Javascript Sound Start/Stop and Image Change Part2

I want to have a small image that when clicked plays a sound and changes to a different image. When the button is then clicked again it changes back to previous image ans stops the sound.
You can think of it as a button that says "start". when "start" is clicked it loops the sound and changes to "stop" and when "stop" is clicked it goes back to start and the sound ceases playing.
I tried using this code and it works perfectly for the images, but i can not seem to get the different sounds to play for the 2 images.
Javascript Sound Start/Stop and Image Change
I also found seperate code to play and stop sound with this script:
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var playing = false;
$('a#button').click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass("down");
if (playing == false) {
document.getElementById('player').play();
playing = true;
$(this).text("stop sound");
} else {
document.getElementById('player').pause();
playing = false;
$(this).text("restart sound");
}
});
});
</script>
<div>
<a id="button">play sound</a>
<audio id="player" src="mysound.mp3" preload="auto"></audio>
Which also works...
Can I combine the 2 together? Or am I not using the first javascript code correctly?
Any help would be much appreciated.
If you want to play a sound and change the image and vice versa, the following would work just fine:
HTML
<p>
<i class="fa fa-play fa-lg" aria-hidden="true"></i>
</p>
<audio id="player" src="http://soundbible.com/mp3/kids-record-player-daniel_simon.mp3" preload="auto"></audio>
JS
var playing = false;
$('#button').click(function() {
if (playing == false) {
document.getElementById('player').play();
playing = true;
$(this).find('i').removeClass('fa-play');
$(this).find('i').addClass('fa-pause');
} else {
document.getElementById('player').pause();
playing = false;
$(this).find('i').removeClass('fa-pause');
$(this).find('i').addClass('fa-play');
}
});
The idea is basically this: If the sound is playing, then swap classes. This example could be expanded to toggling the hide and show of images.
Refer to this working example.
Hope it helps.
EDIT
f I would want to use this for more than one image on the same webpage. Do I just add more add & remove classes? Or do I make a new function for every image?
Actually you can use that function for any number of images. We just need to generalize a few things and we are good to go.
The first thing I did was to change the jQuery selector for the click event. Previously we searched specifically for the element with the unique id #button. In order to bind to multiple buttons, I gave them the same name: $('[name=button]').
The variable playing helped us keep track whether or not the user played the button. In order to control whether or not the button was clicked, I had to move the variable playing to the audio element as an attribute. This way every audio element "knows" its current state (playing or paused);
HTML
<audio name="player" src="http://soundbible.com/mp3/kids-record-player-daniel_simon.mp3" preload="auto" data-playing="false"></audio>
Notice the data-playing="false" attribute
JS
var $button = $(this), // get the button
$player = $button.next('[name=player]'); // button and player are siblings
if ($player.data('playing') == false) {
$player[0].play();
$player.data('playing', true);
...
} else {
$player[0].pause();
$player.data('playing', false);
...
}
The trick here is to update the playing attribute to ensure we know the user clicked play or pause
Please refer to this updated version of the previous example.

JS / JQUERY iframe.contents() syntax

I'm currently working on a project which includes when the user hovers over a certain div then it will play the associated audio file and stop all other audio elements on the page that contain the class 'stoppable' in them.
I've got the code working but now I'm having that page as an iFrame on another page which can insert elements into the iframe, so I have to keep adding iframe.contents on elements to make them work.
On the code below it detects when the user has entered the div and plays the correct audio however it does not stop all the other audio elements.
I believe I have the incorrect syntax on the
$('.stoppable:not($("#new-audio-476333", iframe.contents()))
section, and I'm not sure what the correct syntax would be.
var iframe = $('#clientframe');
$('#476333',iframe.contents()).mouseenter(function() {
$('.stoppable:not($("#new-audio-476333", iframe.contents()))').each(function(){
this.pause(); this.currentTime = 0;
});
var audio = $('#new-audio-476333', iframe.contents())[0];audio.pause();audio.play(); });
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-Hopeless
$('.stoppable:not(#new-audio-476333)', iframe.contents())
This means that elements with class name stoppable which its id is not new-audio-476333.

Add/remove class to video element

I'm working on a kiosk-style web page to display a menu of options. Clicking on a title opens a fullscreen video which then closes back to the menu when the video ends.
To keep the page clean, I'd like to hide the video element until the video is actually called by a click. I did this with a CSS class. The video opens fullscreen and when finished, closes and adds the hide class again.
Working script
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.cell').on('click', function() {
var element = this.getElementsByTagName('video');
var m = element[0].getAttribute('id');
console.log(m);
var v = document.getElementById(m);
if (v.webkitRequestFullscreen) {
v.className = "";
v.webkitRequestFullscreen();
}
v.play();
$("#" + m).on("ended", function() {
this.webkitExitFullscreen();
this.className = "hide";
});
})
})
I'm running into a problem of the video not hiding if the user exits full screen video on their own. I tried using $("#" + m).on("ended" || "resize", function()... based on the HTML5 video API, but that didn't work. I'd also considered disabling clicks or overlaying a full-screen div to grab any clicks and force the video to play all the way through, but that seems shady to me. Any ideas on how to approach this?
Here's a CodePen demo of the content and script
Space separated list:
$("#" + m).on("ended resize"
To make it work you might need this trick: How to detect DIV's dimension changed?
Update: I was able to catch the fullscreen event:
$(document).on('webkitfullscreenchange mozfullscreenchange fullscreenchange', function(e){
console.log("fullscreen change");
});

Simple pause with vimeo api Froogaloop

Trying to call the vimeo api to pause video on a click event to hide it. And, on clicking to reveal the video again, play the video from its paused position.
There are various related questions on here, I can't find an answer to the simple "how to pause". I'm a jquery novice and can't make heads or tails of the froogaloop documentation.
Here's a FIDDLE, and my current jquery script to hide the video
$(document).click(function (event) {
if (!$(event.target).hasClass('click')) {
$('#video').hide();
}
});
which hides it when an element without the "click" class is clicked. But the video plays on in the background. Froogaloop is loaded in the fiddle. Thanks everyone
Here's an updated FIDDLE that makes pause/play work as I'd imagined. Click the image to play the video; click outside or on empty space (you control this with classes) to pause it; click image again to play from paused position. Simple, no buttons, no excess jquery or froogaloop code.
Putting this here for those who might benefit from it. And a +1 to mbrrw for getting me started.
var iframe = $('#video iframe')[0];
var player = $f(iframe);
$('.showvideo').on('click', function(){
$('#video').show();
$('.image').hide();
player.api('play');
});
$(document).click(function (event) {
if (!$(event.target).hasClass('click')) { //if what was clicked does not have the class 'click' (ie. any empty space)
$('#video').hide();
$('.image').show();
player.api('pause');
}
});
Remember to append api=1 to the vimeo link. And the url must be https, not http.
froogaloop can be a pain in the arse.
The code to get you started is here:
https://developer.vimeo.com/player/js-api#universal-with-froogaloop
I've adapted that to get it working i think how you expect here:
https://jsfiddle.net/fLe5xs4v/
Setting it up like so:
var iframe = $('#video iframe')[0];
var player = $f(iframe);
Note that if you change the text in the play and pause buttons you will break this code:
$('button').bind('click', function() {
player.api($(this).text().toLowerCase());
});
Give it a shot it should get you going in the right direction at least. Good luck!

Stop YouTube video from playing when div is closed

How do I stop the YouTube video from playing when the div is closed?
Demo: http://defroster.99k.org/layers.php
THANKS
If you dont want to use the js_api_reference...
You'll need to clear the div object by doing
$('#slidingDiv').html(''); or rebuild the html
after the sliding is finished, and then rebuild the html content again when you activate that.
try this
http://jsfiddle.net/fedmich/GTedm/
$('#slidingDiv').slideToggle('', function (){
var obj = $(this);
if(obj.is(':hidden')){
obj.html( obj.html() );
}
});
