I want to show the video player controls INCLUDING full screen button. But I'm only seeing this:

What am I doing wrong?

<video 
    id="video" 
    controls 
    preload="auto" 
    poster="placeholder-poster.jpg"
    controlslist="nodownload noplaybackrate"
    disableremoteplayback
    oncontextmenu="return false"
  >
    Sorry, your browser does not support embedded video.
  </video>

For a brief moment I can see the geneic controls (with full screen button), which I would also be happy to use.

...but I don't know why the controls are suddenly overridden.

Can anyone help? Thanks

How to replicate.............use this html:

<video 
        id="video" 
        controls 
        preload="auto" 
        poster="placeholder-poster.jpg"
        controlslist="nodownload noplaybackrate"
        disableremoteplayback
        oncontextmenu="return false"
      >
        Sorry, your browser does not support embedded video.
      </video>

....end of replication.

That HTML does not reproduce the missing button. You might have some other code preventing the button showing.

Some browsers like firefox,safari don't support controlist, refer CanIuse website for more information:- caniuse.com/?search=control+list Inside the video tag you have some restrictive attributes like controlslist, here few websites especially chrome and edge doesn't support restrictive combinations as you mentiones in code controlslist="nodownload noplaybackrate" either you should remove that or mention controls controlslist="nodownload noplaybackrate"
