Tagged: video safari autoplay
Dear support,
the video autoplay of a local mp4-video doesn`t work on Safari Mac. It works in Chrome and Firefox. Is there a solution i could autoplay the video on safari as well?
Hey dondela,
When I check with Safari v17.6 on Mac Monterey v12.7.6 the video autoplay works for me in desktop and in Responsive Design Mode emulating mobile.
Unfortunately, my Mac won’t update to Sequoia, but from what I can tell Safari v17.6 is the latest version for all Macs.
Are you seeing the cookie message and clicking it?
Best regards,
Mike
Hi Mike,
thanks for your help!
I have Safari Version 18.4 , MacOS 15.4. Yes i am clicking the cookie message, then i see the video loading and a play button. I f i click the play-Button the video scales right to 100% percent and plays. Before i click the button i see black stripes above und below the video preview image. (like in the screenshot). Maybe it is an issue with a privacy-setting?
Hi,
On first load I see the cookie moral and the video is playing in the background, full size and no play button.
When I accept the cookies the page reloads and the video starts playing again full size with no play button.
I tried to update again and went to the app store to just update Safari, but it’s not an option for me.
Perhaps the Safari Version 18.4 has a setting that you need to check, are you on a wifi network? Try looking for that in the settings.
I know that when my Mac last updated the Safari ad-blocker was blocking FB and other sites by default and I had to manually change the options in Safari.
Best regards,
Mike
