Title Video Not Playing

Dec 01, 2023

Unfortunately, the video & audio aren't playing automatically like they should. Has anyone had this problem before? And did you find a solution?

Here are all the triggers (on the right). The video and audio should both play when the timeline starts.

Here is the review link (with the video & audio not working): link

I've also uploaded the .story file.

Many thanks for any help!

all current browser forbid autoplay of video or audio before user interaction (= CLICK) - this is the reason for the storyline play-button* before the start of the course

you have prevented exactly that with your programming - the result is that the video does not start automatically

to fix the problem - remove the slide without user interaction before the video and add instead a cover image in the player settings

result with the first slide as cover image (you should use an optimized image):

more infos about "autoplay audio/video"

*storyline is testing autoplay audio on start and if autoplay is not possible the cover photo with the play button appears
