I am using video tags and jQuery to display a HTML5 video playback.
How can I show an image while the video is still loading for displaying?
I would use jQuery for this..
Thanks in advance!
PD: Display an image when the video preloads.

There is no need for JQuery to achieve this as the html5 video tag comes with its own poster attribute. You can use that to specify what image should be displayed while the video loads. For instance if you have an image called
myImage.jpgyou can do the following:<video controls="controls" poster="myImage.jpg">. Refer here for more info:https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/Elements/video#HTML_Attributes
