how to add an overlay that triggers video play on hover — now the overlay is blocking play on hover

by

I have videos that play on hover but the overlays I use block this function. I’d like to have an opaque overlay with text pop up over the video and it still plays on hover. So my question is how can I add a text and opaque overlay that doesn’t block the play on hover.

reference: https://axisstudiosgroup.com/work/

I am using the following:

js:

jQuery(document).ready(function($){

    var oPlayer = $("#" + this.id);
  $('.work-grid .work-item').on('mouseenter', '.play-video', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();

    oPlayer = $(this);
    froogaloop = $f(oPlayer[0].id);
    froogaloop.api('play');
  }).mouseleave(function() {

    froogaloop = $f(oPlayer[0].id);
    froogaloop.api('pause');
    froogaloop.api("seekTo", 0);
  });
});

css:

.work-grid {
    display: grid;
    grid-row-gap: 25px;
    width: 100%;
    margin-bottom: 80px;
  } 
    
.work-item {
  position: relative;
  margin-top: 0px;
  overflow: visible;
}

.work-wrap {
  position: relative;
  padding-bottom: 58.25%;
}

.work-item iframe {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  right: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  border: 0.125rem solid transparent;
  
}

.work-item img {
  display: block;
  height: auto;
  max-width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
}

html

<div class="work-grid">
    <div class="work-item">
        <div class="work-wrap">
           <a href="#">
               <div class="work-item-overlay">
               </div>
                   <div>
                    <iframe id="player1" class="play-video" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/#?api=1&player_id=player1&title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=0&background=1" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>
                   </div>
                   <div class="work-item-details">
                     <h3 class="work-item-title">Title</h3>
                   </div>
            </a>
        </div>
    </div>

  60. Hiya! Quick question that’s entirely off topic. Do you know
    how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when viewing from my apple iphone.
    I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.
    If you have any suggestions, please share. Cheers!

  65. I have been browsing online more than 2 hours today,
    yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all
    website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot
    more useful than ever before.

  101. With havin so much written content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
    or copyright infringement? My site has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it seems
    a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods to help reduce
    content from being ripped off? I’d definitely appreciate it. http://ciaalis2u.com/
