Stop multi media widgets from playing when a pop up or off canvas content is closed

Prerequisites

• I have searched for similar feature requests in both open and closed discussions and cannot find an existing request.
• I have verified that the feature is still missing from the latest stable versions of Elementor or Elementor Pro.

What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe..

When I use the off-canvas widget to play a video -for example a preview video or instruction video- the video keeps on playing when the off-canvas widget is closed.

Describe the solution you'd like.

It would be nice if the video would stop or pause automatically (or with a switch 'Stop playing multi-media when closed' or something similar) when closed

Describe alternatives you've considered.

I vote for this! I've been using another plugin to do this for years now. I'd love to deactivate that other plugin so I can use the native elementor widget for either popup or off-canvas videos.

Until it's solved I'm interested in the plugin. But I agree it would be a part of Elementor itself

Please share the plugin name.

Sure, this is the plugin I've been using: https://ultimateelementor.com/widgets/modal-popup/ Oh and I've had to comment out the "mute" portion of the code for vimeo videos so it won't start the videos playing muted.
