Trigger overlay mode from custom play button

Wonderful plugin. Im attempting to customize but am stuck. does anyone have a suggestion? the overlay display is perfect but id like to trigger the overlay a bit differently.
this is a link to the project page: https://ourlight.online/test4/
is there a way to make a button in my theme single.php that triggers the overlayTrigger event and disables the hover/play icon?

i think this is the functionality i want to trigger with the button

/**
   * Show the overlay on-click.
   */
  function overlayTrigger(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    var $self = $(event.currentTarget);
    var id = parseInt($self.attr('data-id'), 10);

    $self.openDOMWindow({
      eventType     : null,
      windowPadding : 0,
      borderSize    : 0,
      windowBGColor : 'transparent',
      overlayOpacity: fvpdata.opacity * 100,
      width : '100%',
      height: '100%'
    });

    // Check if the result is already cached
    if (! videoCache[id]) {
      $.post(fvpdata.ajaxurl, {
        'action'    : 'fvp_get_embed',
        'fvp_nonce' : fvpdata.nonce,
        'id'        : id
      }, function(response) {
        if (response.success) {
          // cache the result to not reload when opened again
          videoCache[id] = response.data;

          $('#DOMWindow').html(response.data);
          sizeLocal();
          $(window).trigger('scroll');
        }
      });
    } else {
      // From cache
      $('#DOMWindow').html( videoCache[id] );
      sizeLocal();
      $(window).trigger('scroll');
    }
  }
