Describe the Problem
The V3 Video widget lets us enable an Image Overlay and choose a custom Play icon ("Play Icon" control), accepting an SVG from the media library or an icon from the library. We can also style it (size, color, hover).
The Atomic (V4) Video widget doesn't offer an equivalent. There is no way to replace the default play button on the placeholder with a custom SVG, so we can't match the video thumbnail to the brand's design system. In client projects this is one of the reasons we still fall back to the V3 Video widget inside V4 layouts, which mixes two systems on the same page.
