Hello all
In my WP-site I’m using the Vantage theme, together with the Widegt bundle.
I’ve used the SiteOrigin Video Player with success in combinationwith MP4-files,
but encounter problems when using MOV-files. In the preview the screen turns black
and when that happens, I also encounter problems with the correct functioning of WP in general.
Could you please advise me on what I’m doing wrong?

Regards
Richard

    Hi Alex

    I’m busy redesigning a web site, using Vantage and PageBuilder. You can access this development site on http://sandbox.littletigers.eu
    It’s in Dutch at the moment, but If you go to the page “onze successen” and scroll down till you find the entry called ‘Tortie’, there’s where things go wrong.

    As web browser I’m using Microsoft Edge, but it also happens with Google Chrome.

    Kind regards

    Richard

    Hi Richard,

    From the looks of it, this looks like it could be a plugin conflict issue. Can you try disabling all non-SiteOrigin plugins and see if this fixes the issue? You’ll need to clear all your caches after disabling your plugins.

    If it does fix the issue, then try re-enabling your plugins one by one until the issue comes back. This procedure will help diagnose which plugin is causing the issue.

    Once we know that, we’ll be able to look at what might be causing the conflict and either solve the problem or help you find an alternative plugin.

    Hi Richard,

    Sorry for the delay!

    Okay so while you’ve switched out the video I suspect I know what’a going on. This looks to be a browser issue with the file. I’ve been unable to replicate this issue locally with any version of the file outside of your one. Not too sure why this may be – maybe some weird encoding setting? :S Sorry if it sounds like I’m being vague it’s just I’m honestly not too sure why this is happening. Just for reference, give this page a read and see if it aligns with your encoding settings.

    Ok Alex

    Thank you for your troubles. I’ll give it a read and see, if I can make sense of it.

    Kind regards
