    I can confirm that layer six does hide itself, returning me to the base layer. Layer 6 is also over 18 seconds long though so I suspect you simply weren't waiting for it to end. Since all of the other layers are only five seconds long, I expect the 18-second timeline is an accident? It can either be manually shortened to match the length of the video, or a trigger added to hide the video "when the media completes":

    And yes, the play button at the bottom of the player allows someone to restart the base layer. As far as I know it can't restart any non-base layers because we can create projects that show multiple layers at a time, so I'm not sure how the play button would know which non-base layer to play/pause.

    If you want to hide the play button on the bottom, you can change the Menus & Controls toggle to Off from the Player menu:
