Video Preview in Moodle

Hi,
I have been working with Moodle and H5P and think I have grasped how to create the content to a reasonable level, it just looks dull. Is there any way to have a preview of the activity (eg a video box like if you embed YouTube) rather than the little black H5P box they click on?

I have looked online and this might be possible by creating the content on H5P.com and embedding it, however, I am unsure if this would allow me to keep the competencies links so I will self certificate on course completion.

Does anyone have any experience in this?
