## Details

`&nocontrols` will force hide the video control bar. You can also hide the control bar with `Right-Click` -> `Hide control bar`.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This is not the same control bar as the user control bar. Also, be sure to not accidentally unmute yourself -- echo feedback galore.
{% endhint %}

This is the video control bar:<br>
