Audio player with album cover as background image

Question

How can I make an audio player with album cover image as the background image such that all playing control buttons be on top of that image. I have used this

<audio controls = 'controls'>
    <source src='' type= 'audio/mp3'>
</audio>

but it does not allow me to add an image, I have googled a lot with no success.

Answer 1

You can do this:

<video controls poster='img/album/png'>
    <source src='' type= 'audio/mp3'>
</video>
