Hi,

the poster would be shown by default,

but if the video itself would be loaded too depends on the browser and the 'html5preload' setting:
http://krpano.com/plugins/videoplayer/#html5preload

E.g. try using html5preload=metadata or html5preload=none to avoid any video loading until calling play.

Best regards,
Klaus

I tried by adding html5preload="none"

Source code

 
1

<plugin name="video"		       url.flash="%SWFPATH%/plugins/videoplayer.swf"			url.html5="%SWFPATH%/plugins/videoplayer.js"		        pausedonstart="true"		        loop="true"		        volume="1.0"		        html5preload="none"		       			onclick="togglepause();"		        onloaded="add_video_sources();"		        />



but the poster image not remain on the player it shows for a very short time and loads the video.

I need poster image there until i click the play icon.



Thank you

Hi,
I also have the same problem. I've tried html5preload="metadata", and the poster image is visible only for a very short time.
As an aside, if I set html5preload="none", there is still a network request in the network console in Chrome, exactly similar to "metadata".
Thanks
