Video as layer with a cover image doesn't play (revolution slider)

Hi there,

I have an issue with revolution slider when I try to set up a youtube video as a layer with a cover image.
As soon as I customize a cover image, the video stops auto-playing and only the cover image is displayed, as you can see it here : http://talent-digital.fr/vers-une-chaire-des-talents-de-la-transformation-digitale/la-chaire-et-lintelligence-artificielle/

I precise I also tried to insert the video as background and the video doesn’t play at all.

I don’t really know how to fix this issue, apart from removing the cover image of the video as a layer, but then the video is animated with the cover image defined by youtube and I don’t really like it.

I thank you in advance for your help.

Hello Christian,

I followed all the solutions, but it didn’t fix the issue.
When I changed the settings of the “troubleshooting options” as suggested, my website was displayed like this :

So then, I put all the settings back to their initial mode.

Hi @LucieRGrenoble

I’ve checked your website and I can see this error in the console on the page having the video slider:

Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://www.youtube.com') does not match the recipient window's origin ('http://talent-digital.fr').

This is mostly something related to your web host and you need to report this issue to them, checking this related thread might help as well as it includes a possible fix that can be implemented by your host as well:

Thanks.
