Can't get video poster to show

I'm using the following to try and get an uploaded image to show as a poster, but it's not working.

I think I might have the poster publicId wrong?

I've tried the full path and the source path (starts with v) to no avail. 

var cld = cloudinary.Cloudinary.new({ cloud_name: 'zool-agency', autoplayMode: 'on-scroll', posterOptions: { publicId: 'webinar_thumb'} });

  Hi Wayne,

  posterOptions is a parameter controlled by the Cloudinary videoPlayer.  After you create the cld (Cloudinary object), you can create the videoPlayer by passing in the posterOptions:

  https://cloudinary.com/documentation/video_player_customization#:~:text=As%20a%20videoPlayer%20method%20construction%20parameter

  or https://cloudinary.com/documentation/video_player_api_reference#:~:text=600%2C%20crop%3A%20%27limit%27%20%7D)-,posterOptions,-posterOptions(options)

  to configure it after the videoPlayer is created.

  I hope this helps and let me know if you have further questions.

  Thanks,

  Mo
