Sports Theme
Hello,
I have a Youtube video on the Home page, which is using the Layer Slider. I also have two languages on the site. However, the video does not load automatically, but does so only if the language change button is clicked. How can this be changed?

Hello,
That is because browsers nowadays are blocking autoplay of YouTube videos. In that case, I recommend you upload this video to WP Media put it from there.
Thanks
Thank you. Is WP Media a plugin? I can't find it...
By "WP Media" I meant the media tab in WP panel, the place where you upload all your images, videos, etc.
Thanks
Oh yes, thanks. The problem is that it's a big file, so I did not want to download it, but rather use a link...
You can also try to upload your video to the Vimeo service.
But it will be hard to make it work with Youtube video as long browsers are blocking autoplay for YT videos.
Best regards
Thank you.
It all works fine now, except that the video should auto play also on the 'About' page, but does not work on the Firefox browser?
Please, try to use the HTML | Parameters "autoplay controls muted" or anything with the sound muted.
Thanks
