I have the following code:
<video controls autoplay>
<source src="video/myVideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="video/myVideo.webm" type="video/webm">
<source src="video/myVideo.ogv" type="video/ogg"> </video>
The video:
Tried
<video controls autoplay>...</video>
<video controls autoplay="1">...</video>
<video controls autoplay="autoplay">...</video>
Nothing worked in Chrome
Then I also tried changing the codec, as recommended in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_video, but it also did not work:
<source src="movie.webm" type='video/webm; codecs="vp8.0, vorbis"'>
<source src="movie.ogv" type='video/ogg; codecs="theora, vorbis"'>
<source src="movie.mp4" type='video/mp4; codecs="avc1.4D401E, mp4a.40.2"'>
So now I am at a dead end. Thanks for any pointers! Much appreciated.
You need to add playsinline autoplay muted loop
, chrome do not allow a video to autostart if it is not muted, also right now I dont know why it is not working in all android devices, im trying to look if it's a version specific, If I found something I'll let you know
Chrome issue: After some research i have found that it doesnt work on chrome sometimes because in responsive you can activate the data saver, and it blocks any video to autostart
