Video set to auto-start not working?

Hi Frands,

 

Just noticed that a video that I have placed in my Power App doesn't seem to follow my Auto Start switch. Previewing the App works fine however, when running the app the video has a black screen. Doesn't play unless you click on the video itself....

 

Is there something that I am missing?

    Hi @Dimmy ,

    Actually, this is not a control issue but is more related to the browser you are using. I did a test on my side, when using Chrome, auto-start will not work for videos, but when using IE, this did work. So currently, I would suggest you try using other browsers to run your app.

    Besides, maybe not work but you can still have a try about this workaround: I found a thread that also discuss this issue. And the man solve his issue by disabling the autoplay policy within Chrome at chrome://flags/#autoplay-policy. However, I cannot find the autoplay policy in this URL, I don't know why...

    Best regards,

    Allen
