+ * @description
+ * Using Angular markup like `{{hash}}` in a `poster` attribute doesn't
+ * work right: The browser will fetch from the URL with the literal
+ * text `{{hash}}` until Angular replaces the expression inside
+ * `{{hash}}`. The `ngPoster` directive solves this problem.
+ *
+ * The buggy way to write it:
+ * <pre>
+ * <video poster="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{{hash}}"></video>
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * The correct way to write it:
+ * <pre>
+ * <video ng-poster="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/{{hash}}"></video>
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * @element VIDEO
+ * @param {template} ngPoster any string which can contain `{{}}` markup.
