Video autoplay not working

By Stephen Coombes, 5 years ago. Last reply by Andrew Misplon, 5 years ago.

Hi,
I’m struggling to get an MP4 video to autoplay when the site is viewed in Chrome. It will play when the play button is clicked, and will autoplay in Edge and Internet Explorer.

The page is here: http://autocare365.co.uk

Any advice would be much appreciated! Many thanks.
Stephen

    Hi Stephen

    Perhaps try inserting the video using a SiteOrigin Editor widget. Browse to the video in your Media Library to get the full URL and insert it into a shortcode as follows:

    [video mp4="source.mp4" autoplay="on"]
