Hiding the video controller in a looping video

[Arian Hashemi]

Does anyone know how to hide the controller for a placed video that loops full screen in Indesign.

I have a front page that is used for a sales presentation and when it's not in use it plays a looping video. However, when you mouse-over or touch the screen a media controller comes up. Is there any way of hiding this or getting rid of it all together. There is an option in the video panel but it doesn't hide. The file is then exported as an epub.

Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance.

AFAIK, that is controlled by the reader application, but someone might come along with some coding tricks.

Hope so Bob.

It might help if you provided more details such as version of InDesign, reader application, and what format you're outputting to. Screenshots wouldn't hurt, either.

Additional information: I just upgraded to CC 2017 and I am outputting to an Epub so that it works on ipads and Android alike.

In this image you can see the small progress bar at the bottom of the screen which I want to get rid of. There are other movies in the presentation that I need the progress bar and buttons so I can't get rid of them as a blanket script rule.
