Plyr – A simple HTML5 media player

Very clean looking.

I'm not so keen on the default "start playing from the beginning" icon though. To me, it looks too much like a "loop" toggle.

Also, it would be nice if the caption toggle had a visual on/off look. Perhaps it could have a solid fill when turned on. This would make it easier to tell at a glance if captions are on when at a point in a video where there's no dialogue.

Thanks for the feedback fellas. I'll look at this. You're totally right that they're both not obvious enough.

Agreed. Love the L&F but that icon is slightly "misleading," as far as typical user expectations goes.
