Slider Revolution-How to auto play video in mobile

Support
#1

Hello,
I am using X Theme extended gym demo, and have video in the Slider Revolution. The video starts automatically on a laptop computer, but does not start on a mobile device (phone, tablet). How can I get the video to play automatically on a mobile?

Thanks!

Hi There,

Video should be added as Video Content Layer. For more details see this: https://www.themepunch.com/faq/video-not-showing-up-on-mobile/

Hope this helps.

Hi, I have my YouTube video added as Video Content Layer as shown in the link. I also checked the settings but it still will not auto run. What else could I check?
Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for writing in!

The autoplay on mobiles doesn`t work and you can learn more about it here: https://www.dacast.com/blog/why-video-autoplay-does-not-work-on-mobiles/amp/

Got it. The article says I could create a GIF and use it to give the users more visually compelling experience.
Could you guide me on where / how is the best way to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Hi there,

You may use any video to gif converter, then add your GIF image as standard image layer or background image.

Thanks.

I will try that. Thanks!

Great, just a note regarding the GIF. The conversion will extremely increase the Gif size.

Unfortunately, at the moment there is no stable solution on the web regarding auto play in mobile devices because of the policy of device manufacturers.

Thank you.
