I'm playing videos on android (versions above 5 only) using a webview along with the <video>
tag in the html. The video plays perfectly and fires all the events correctly, however every time a video is playing it always has a preview image similar to this one (to play it by opening youtube by chrome on your smartphone):
Is there any elegant way to work around this problem? The only option I thought, but I did not test it, was before the video started to play (timeupdate event tells the time of the video, if it happens of 0.1 seconds I can know that he is already touching) to make some changes of layer with css putting a div with black background in the front, but it seems a lot of gambiarra.
