    Hi, something has happened recently and I cannot figure out a fix. I have a video background (Color Section) on a clients website and when the video gets ready to loop back to the beginning it flickers on a ‘more videos’ section at the bottom. This appears to be something new with Youtube on a video pause which I assume happens when using a looping video background…?

    You can see an example of what I am talking about here: http://farmersmark.com/ At the end of the loop you will see the glitch. I was able to grab a quick screenshot to better see what was showing up:
    Video Background Loop issue

    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Thanks,
    Slade

    Hey Slade,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    I can’t reproduce the issue on Opera/Chrome Windows 7. Where are you testing this?

    Best regards,

    Hey Ismael,

    I’ve tried it on Chrome, Firefox and Safari (Macbook). I’ve had several users comment on it and I can’t imagine they all use a Mac. I wouldn’t think it was an OS issue.

    Thanks,
    Slade

    Hi,

    I will ask the team to check this on Mac. Please wait for their response.

    Hi,
    I took a look at your site and saw the error in Firefox only, with a jQuery error from Youtube:

    Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://www.youtube.com') does not match the recipient window's origin - The YouTube player is not attached to the DOM

    I wonder if this is YouTube’s way of getting around the auto play restrictions, just guessing. All of my research points to using SSL (https).
    If I load your site with https the error doesn’t occur, but you do get other mixed content errors, which would be a easy fix if you had SSL, but you don’t.
    I assume you tried disabling your plugins, you could try using the ecver=2 attribute for getting rid of advertising on pause YouTube videos. Like this:

    or:

    Sorry this wasn’t more helpful.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi Mike, thank you for the response.

    Unfortunately, I can’t get any of these options to work. Loading the site with https still shows the glitch on Chrome. I also attempted the ecver=2 option with no luck.

    I am looking at moving the video to Vimeo but do hope either Youtube can make some adjustments or Enfold can come up with a fix. I am seeing this issue show up on several of my client’s sites.

    Thanks,
    Slade

    Hi,
    Did you try disabling your plugins and custom scripts? jQuery errors don’t always list the correct source error, it can say one thing but the real issue is the script that loads before the error listed. Perhaps give Vimeo a try, but it’s odd that the error didn’t show for me in Chrome.
    Please let us know if Vimeo or disabling plugins helps.

    Best regards,
    Mike
