How to Override Browsers blocking auto play

Post by dapson »

Hello all, I have a challenge with the autoplay functionality on the HTML5 video and audio players. Once I set them to play automatically, the browser blocks them and they are not able to play. In version 11, this plays fine when the autoplay feature is turned on. Is there anyway, I can override this functionality in the browsers? Even if I have to add a line of code?

Thanks a lot. However, version 11 works just fine. How is that possible?

This functionality is implemented in the browser, so this is unrelated to WWB.
But you may have used a video without sound.
