[Feature Request]: Reduced size/obtrusiveness of Play icon when mousing over playing video #5989

Guidelines

Problem Description

When mousing over a playing video, the pause/play icon that comes up is very big and opaque. In previous versions, it was smaller and less intrusive/obscuring, and i think it would go away sooner too (not sure).

In this update, its a big 90% opaque circle, which gets in the way of viewing videos when the player controls are up, or if you accidentally move the mouse a bit

Proposed Solution

Could it be made smaller/transparent? it could just have the triangle/double rectangle icons for play/pause respectively, the circle for contrast isnt that necessary. How it was in the previous version was ideal.

Alternatives Considered

Make it configurable, making the video controls hide quicker(or making the time to hide quicker).
