## FAQ
1. How to show the poster if video has finished.
This can be implemented with `onEnded` event handler. You could create an overlay and show it at the end of the video. Please have a look at this [**example**](https://github.com/samAbeywickrama/reactjs-videobg/blob/master/examples/cra/src/showPosterOnEnd)
