Post by Webloco »

Autoplay doesn't work on "video", "YouTube", and "Vimeo" video object. Any help on this will be appreciated. Thanks.

This is unrelated to the software in anyway. If the video has audio then it will be disabled by the browser it is to save bandwidthand on the likes of mobile devices. If you do a search of the forum you will see it is well documented in other related posts.

From the help:
Note:
Many of today's browsers (for example, Chrome and Safari) block 'auto play' when 'audio' is detected.
The same applies to devices such as Android / iPad / iPhone as they do not support 'auto play' as it is deemed annoying for visitors, it uses more bandwidth, and it can also affect battery life of the device.
You can set the audio to 'mute' as this usually allows the browser to play the video due to 'audio' not being detected, or remove the 'audio' from the video itself. Please note this had nothing to do with WWB.
