I am attempting to show a HTML video tag in a triangle display. So, as opposed to the default rectangle display; a triangle. Meaning, here's the default display:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Video Default</title>
</head>
<body>
<video width="640" height="360" controls>
<source src="https://durendel.com/event/theater/gravityphase.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
</body>
</html>
Notice how the default display is the rectangle form - my aim is to get the display in a triangle
form - like this:
I am trying to use CSS to accomplish this task, specifically border-top-left radius
and border-top-right-radius
, but I can only get it to curve. Here's the code below:
video {
border-top-left-radius: 200px;
border-top-right-radius: 200px;
overflow: hidden;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Video</title>
</head>
<body>
<video width="640" height="360" controls>
<source src="https://durendel.com/event/theater/gravityphase.mp4" type="video/mp4"> Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
</body>
</html>
The problem I'm running into, as you can see from the code snippet above, the left and right angles only curve as opposed to forming a point. Therefore, is it possible to create a triangle display of a HTML video tag using CSS border-radius? Or can someone provide some additional guidance as to what I should be using to accomplish this task?
I doubt this is possible with border-radius.
But you can achieve this with clip-path
video {
clip-path: polygon(50% 0, 100% 100%, 0 100%);
}
