Video.js: Disable auto hide controls

[several27]

Is there any option to disable auto hide control bar? Or if not, where I should change source code to add this functionality?

You can use the designer, and remove this style block from the CSS.
https://github.com/videojs/video.js/blob/v4.3.0/src/css/video-js.less#L179

That's where the controls hide themselves when the user is 'inactive'.

Any idea how to do this in latest 5.10.4 version? Can I do it without modifying origin video-js.css ? Thanks.

var videoid =document.getElementsByClassName("vjs-control-bar"); videoid[0].style.setProperty("display", "none", "important");

Not working on 5.20.x :(

@mizmaar3

I found this somewhere else online, I think it may work: data-setup='{ "inactivityTimeout": 0 }'

[gkatsev]

the inactivityTimeout option set to 0 is the currently supported way to do so, as @y4my4my4m mentioned.

Ok will try

I have tried inactivityTimeout in 7.3.0 and it does not seem to do anything, any other way to stop the controls from hiding?
