Video Elememnt

Hello, I'm using ACF for video links and video images in posts... it works well except there's padding between the video and the player upon page load (before video is played)... the padding disappears after the video is played (which is what I want)... is there a way to remove the padding when the page loads/before video is played? Screenshots show the padding on page load/before video is played and the padding disappeared after video is played...

Padding before video is played...

No padding after video is played...

  Hi Daniel,

  Thank you for reaching out to us.

  This padding issue could be caused by the default styling or dimensions of the video container before the video starts playing. It’s possible to use custom CSS to set a fixed padding before and after the video is played.

  If you want the padding to change upon video play, JavaScript would be required to detect when the video is ready and adjust the container’s padding accordingly. However, please note that we don’t provide support for custom code. 

  Best regards,  
  Ariel H.

  Thanks. I set the video block at zero padding, zero margins but it still has that gap between the player controls and the video. I don't want the padding to change upon video play. It looks correct when the video plays (no padding, no gap between the video and player controls). What I was hoping for was the same thing would happen before the video plays. Even with everything set to zero the gap remains... So the settings in Brizy work once the video is played, but they don't work before the video is played... shouldn't the padding settings affect the video and player controls both before and after the video is played?

  I figured out a workaround... the ACF image needs to be the same proportion as the video element border... if you added a Rumble video option that wouldn't be needed because it'd just embed the video with the original video's image... but until that's added this workaround is good... adding Rumble would be good though... it's gaining popularity with many content creators because of YouTube's censorship... Russel Brand is a prime example...
