I’ve enabled autoplay and lightbox however the autoplay isn’t working.
[fvplayer src="http://www.resolutelearningsystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/The-Pledge.mp4" autoplay="true" embed="false" redirect="http://www.resolutelearningsystems.com/lesson/lesson-10-5-3g-course-aim/" lightbox="true;"]
The url is http://www.resolutelearningsystems.com/course/5th-grade-math-staar-prep/

Hello Charles,
this is what I see:
1) I open http://www.resolutelearningsystems.com/course/5th-grade-math-staar-prep/
2) I see the player on it
3) I click it, it opens the lightbox and starts to playThat is the expected behavior.
Are you expecting the lightbox to open automatically on the pageload as well? Please let us know.
Thanks,
Martin
I was expecting to automatically play without clicking it. if I remove the lightbox it automatically plays as the page is loaded.
Hello Charles,
so the lightbox would have to be opened automatically as well obviously, is that what you are looking for? I just want to make this clear before I throw this idea at my team mates, please let us know.
Thanks,
Martin
Hi Charles,
I’m not atall sure that to have Lightboxes open automatically on page load would be desirable. Autolightbox with autoplay would not be an expected behaviour on the web and somewhat visitor hostile. People expect to click to get a lightbox. If what you want are large videos autoplaying against a black background in a kind of caroussel arrangement, I would suggest you build your pages to do just that.
Of course lightbox opening automatically and playing a video is quite possible (and I could see a special use case for it), but it would be custom web development and not a core feature we’d like to build in. Feel free to order a pro support incident if you’d like us to prepare something specific to your site.
Thanks for being part of Foliovision!
Making the web work for you, Alec
