H There,
I have a background video which is not playing in my Iphone 6 device – running IOS 10. When I untick “Hide video on Mobile Devices” I can still see a play button and the video doesnt seem to autoplay. With the introduction of IOS10 I would assume that background videos would autoplay on this device?
Thanks,
Elliot.
Hey elliot-a,
autoplay is restricted due to vendors of mobile devices. You need to use a Video Element for it instead.
Best regards,
Andy
But autoplay is not restricted on IOS anymore…. Please see the link I posted.
Hi,
I am sure Kriesi is going to add this function to Enfold in the future. Fee free to make a feature request for him here: https://kriesi.at/support/enfold-feature-requests/

Thanks Andy – I have added a feature request.
Hi,
alright and thanks for this!

HI Andy,
I still have the issue with the play button appearing. Can you explain in more detail how I fix it and have a still image on iphone.

Please open a new ticket, so we can close this thread here. Otherwise it gets very confusing in our forum. Thanks for your understanding.
You can use a Vide Element to display your video on mobile, which you hide on desktop. Follow these instructions here at first: kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/turn-on-custom-css-field-for-all-alb-elements/
and then use something like:
@media only screen and (min-width: 736px) {
.video-only-mobile {
display: none;
}
}
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Andy
