Videos and Background Videos Do Not Play with JetPack

Support
#1

I’ve seen a handful of articles about this, most from 9 months ago. This issue still persists. The only videos that will play require using the classic video embed module. But none of the newer video modules will even show the video, and background videos will not show up or play.

Is there any resolution for this in the works?

OK, i found this one that does work, mostly.

.mejs-container{
position: unset !important;
}

It forces me to set the video as parallax in order to get it full width, but now there’s a flash of black every time the video loops making the background unusable. Any idea how to correct the black flash? the video has no black frame at the end.

Apologies, I just loaded it from our own server instead of YouTube, so the problem was YouTube when it came to the black flash.

Hi Jesse,

Can you please confirm that the issue still persists on your website? On the other hand, I will add a note to our Issue Tracker referencing your report so our dev team can see there are multiple reports of the issue.

Thanks
