Play/stop/pause icon in middle of viewing screen of Ultra 2 spotlight cameras.

Is there any way to remove the play/stop/pause radio icon that shows in the middle of the screen while reviewing an video? It's a nuisance and it's right in the center of the screen. It can often hinder what is happening during that time of the video.

Are you playing the video on a PC (my.arlo.com) or in the app?

If on the PC, are you moving your mouse off the video window after you click on the play icon?

WHile it is overlaid during the initial playback, I find that just tapping the progress bar back at the beginning causes the icon to disappear before the video actually restarts.

@jguerdat Honestly, you shouldn't have to tap on progress bars etc. etc. This is a nuisance and all these flawed features should finally be addressed so that this system is more user friendly!
