Cinematic video player with chapter mark

Autoplay on Scroll: The player watches when it enters the viewport. Once 50% visible, video begins playing silently — no user action required. Scrolls away, it pauses. Keeps the page feeling alive without being intrusive. Custom Controls: Progress bar sits invisibly at 2px along the bottom. Hover over the player — it expands to 6px, becomes interactive. Play and pause icon fades in at center on hover, disappears when playing. Every interaction feels intentional and quiet. Chapter Markers: Place dots anywhere on the timeline — product reveal, feature highlight, key moment. Viewers hover to see the chapter name, click to jump directly. Perfect for guided tours, demos, or storytelling videos. One-Click Fullscreen: Click anywhere on the video — it unmutes and expands fullscreen instantly. Press ESC to return to the inline player. No buttons to hunt for. No extra steps. Poster & Lazy Loading: Poster image renders immediately on page load. Video file only loads when needed — keeps page fast, saves bandwidth. Feels instant without sacrificing performance. Smart Connection Awareness: Detects slow or data-saving connections and skips autoplay automatically. Respects the viewer's device and network. No forced video on limited data plans. Mobile Ready: Falls back to native controls on mobile Safari where custom fullscreen is restricted. Works across all modern browsers without extra configuration.
