Youtube video autostart fail
Autor: JULLIEN MarcBonjour,
I still can't solve my pb - Could you kindly help? When I'm browsing my site from an ANDROID smartphone (www.expatelecom.net) the youtube videos which are in autostart (autostart = true) are NOT STARTING instead the youtube screen become "Black". When the video are not in autostart (=false) they perfectly work when I proceed with a manual start (clicking on the youtube screen of my smartphone). For instance in the page "L1:Event - L2:Le bal des vampires" the autostart video "does'nt start" while using my Galaxy note 3 (4.4.2)
For your information both youtube "autostart & manual start" work fine when using a browser from my PC (IE, Google). so the trouble is only with Android and ONLY with "autostart" mode.
Tks & rgds, for your recommendations, marc
Hello Marc,
The autostart function on mobile devices like Android or iOs is automatically blocked to avoid to start content ot data transfer without the users authoritation. You will need to remove the autoplay and then the youtube videos will work correctly on mobile devices where the visitor needs to press play to see them.
Many thanks!
