Quick summary

VideoPress has the option to set poster image using the option "Pick from video frame". However, this results in the video playing from that frame instead of from the beginning.

This issue was reproducible only on the Simple site.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Upload a video using VideoPress block
  2. Set a poster image using a frame from the video.
  3. Save the changes.
  4. Visit the published page.
  5. You will notice the frame you set as poster image.
  6. Click on the video to play. You will notice that video will start playing from that frame instead of from the beginning.
