Video Fullscreen autostart

Hi there,

is it possible to make a fullscreen self-hosted video autostart ?
thanks

Air

Hello:-)

I believe you have option for autoplay for each video in album.


With kind regards.

Hi Air,

thanks for your answer. I got one page with a fullscreen video as a background (no album) - works nice but there is no autoplay function. Can i implement this in any way ?

thanks

Air

Video as background? How did you pull that off? I don't remember theme to have such option :-)
If it was your personal implementation, then you will have to search how to do it for your code.

With kind regards.

sure there is such an option. take a look at the the screenshot. it works perfectly for fullscreen video but there is no autostart

Air

But this is not for background. This is for "title video" something like featured image. Can you show me live link to how it looks, so I will be least confused ? :-)

With kind regards.

Hello Air,

oh i misunderstood this feature :-) Please take a look -> http://arche.krobbdesign.de/video/
Only thing i modified is ... i made a new template without the content area.

Hmm ... but the result is nice :-)

Air

It is hard to do it for only this video, but we can make it globally for your site.

Try this modification:
Go to photon-a13\advance\utilities\media.php line ~286
and change this
return wp_video_shortcode( array( 'src' => $src );
to
return wp_video_shortcode( array( 'src' => $src, 'autoplay' => true ) );

With kind regards.
