Thanks, I will investigate further, but unsure why as it has never been deactivated before and i tried different browsers. thanks

My Test:

Firefox = Video with sound

Chrome = Video but no sound

Edge = just a picture, no moving video and no sound either

Settings:

Chrome = Sound playback is allowed in the settings, but still no sound

Edge = Video and sound playback allowed in the settings, now the video works with sound

Result:

Now the video works with sound in Firefox and Edge.

Maybe I can also find a solution for Chrome, but if visitors do not allow this in their settings, then they will not see the video or will hear the video without sound.

To be on the safe side, the video would have to be inserted with the "Audio and Video" object so that visitors can start it.

(It > En) ... to hear the video's sound, you need interactivity, that is, you need to interact between the pages of your own site, even from one page to another...
...if the site is the one in your profile, opening the HOME page directly from this LINK won't start the video:
>>  https://vip-scotland.co.uk/index.php
... This blockage occurs because it contains the audio track, and this has always been prohibited on mobile devices, and recently, about five years ago, it was also blocked in common PC browsers...
...but if you click on the HOME/Vip Scotland menu, or on CONTACT and then click on Vip Scotland, you'll notice that the video starts automatically with its audio enabled...
...alternatively, you could post an ad that, when clicked, reloads the page—an option worth trying...

... thanks, Daniel, the same rules apply as before: interactivity is required...
...
... possibly with my own invention, you can add an EXTRA button to activate the audio...
