Adding video to page template

I added this plugin to an existing WordPress site and if I use the shortcode to add it to a page, it works wonderfully as always: The big play button shows, but the controls don’t display until you start the Play button. Exactly what I want. BUT when I try to copy the code from that page

<!-- Begin Video.js -->
	<video id="example_video_id_888907456" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" width="720" height="405" poster="http://website.com/video/video-poster.jpg" controls preload="none" data-setup='[]'>
		<source src="http://website.com/video/video.mp4" type='video/mp4' />
		<source src="http://website.com/video/video.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8, vorbis"' />

	</video>
	<!-- End Video.js -->

The video is there, but the big play button is gone and the controls at the bottom of the video show, which is not what I’m aiming for. I am assuming I’m missing some portion of code but can’t figure out what. Can anyone assist? Because of the layout of this specific page, it needs to be built into the template not as part of the page content. Thanks for your time, folks.
