I am getting this download button with <video> tags in Chrome 55, but not on Chrome 54:

How can I remove this so no one can see the download button in Chrome 55?

I have used <video> tag to embed this video on my web page. So, I want some kind of code to remove this download option.

Here is my current code:

<video width="512" height="380"  controls>
    <source data-src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/mp4">
</video>

Answer

Google has added a new feature since the last answer was posted here. You can now add the controlList attribute as shown here:

<video width="512" height="380" controls controlsList="nodownload">
    <source data-src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/mp4">
</video>

You can find all options of the controllist attribute here:
