Question(mux-player-react): Is it possible to hide the player controls.

[tronic-chris]

Is it possible to hide the video player controls similar to the controls prop in mux-video-react?

@tronic-chris not currently, but we're looking at ways to customize the existing controls. Stay tuned for more updates.

In our use case we use VOD as part of a live experience. So we tell a rich client to load the same VOD at the same time, the streamType='live' is the closest we have in terms of UI, but I would like to hide the pause button, only show the play button if the browser decided to block the autoplay of that video.

Also probably hide the live icon:
