Hello everyone,
is it possible that the enfold video-element run videos on desktop automatically and also auto-loop?
All videos are integrated via vimeo url. But even with parameters, the videos wont run automatically.
?autoplay=1&loop=1&autopause=0
Is the video-element here the wrong choice?
So you get an idea of what I’m talking about:

I hope somebody can help me. (:
Thx & best regards, Mark.
Hey mark_markt8_gmbh,
Thank you for using Enfold.
The media files do not automatically play because of the browsers’ autoplay policy. You have to mute the video or have users interact with it.
// https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changes
This behaviour or policy can be overridden in the client-side, but there’s nothing we can do on our end.
Chrome’s autoplay policies are simple:
Muted autoplay is always allowed.
Autoplay with sound is allowed if:
User has interacted with the domain (click, tap, etc.).
On desktop, the user’s Media Engagement Index threshold has been crossed, meaning the user has previously played video with sound.
On mobile, the user has added the site to their home screen.
Top frames can delegate autoplay permission to their iframes to allow autoplay with sound
Best regards,
Ismael
