    Smiley Cat Weblog Web design thoughts and . commentary Home About Portfolio Elements of Design Contact 11 Jul Contrasting Design Conventions Working on a website recently that incorporates a music soundtrack I noticed that audio and video controls function in opposite . ways The video play control shows you what will happen if you click on the button . So , if a video is playing , the pause button will show . And if the video is paused or stopped , the play button . displays However , with audio the reverse is true . If a website uses music or sound effects the on off control will show you whether sound is currently on or off , not what will happen if you click . it It must be because I'm so familiar with how these controls function that this intuitively feels right to me . However , on reflection , it's odd that they've come to work so . differently The more I think about it the more it seems strange that the video play button displays the opposite of what it is doing .
