We have integrated Brightcove videos in our application. Autoplay videos play in desktop browsers but not playing in ipad Safari browser.
Please suggest if there is any limitation of playing autoplay videos in iPad/iPhone Safari browsers.
Please let me know if further info needed.
Autoplay option is disabled by default on mobile devices to avoid bandwidth consumption. User has to click play button to autoplay the video.
However if you want to enforce autoplay and muted attributes, but it will work only on latests versions of Chrome for Android and iOS 10.

How are sites like YouTube able to autoplay videos without muting audio but it's not possible to achieve the same using the <video> element embedded on a page?
I've developed an application like netflix which streams video.
I'm working with video.js.
when I try to play unmuted video, it throw error says that
"Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: play() failed because the user didn't interact with the document first. https:// goo.gl/xX8pDD"
I can understand what the policy is, but I wonder how autoplay works in Netflix.
Video Preview on netflix works with sound well on chrome and safari.
as soon as I access the video chat page in Netflix party, it turns to play with sound.
I wanna know what they do and apply them to mine.
Thanks.
It seems some sites are whitelisted:
If you don’t have browsing history, Chrome allows autoplay for over 1,000 sites where we see that the highest percentage of visitors play media with sound.
I'm using the retina theme for the Shopify site. I'm using video on my home page but it's not autoplay in the chrome. another browser it's playing well...please tell me to need to customize code for autoplay in the chrome browser?
Chrome can autoplay the videos with sound off, so you'll need to add muted attribute.
<video autoplay muted>
...

I am building a PWA with Agora broadcasting API. I managed to get the video stream playing on desktop Chrome, but not on Safari. The documentation says Safari is supported on both MacOS and iOS, but it doesn't seem like the case.
When I opened the client page on Safari, instead of playing the video stream, it just create a video player without content. I don't see any data being streamed in the inspector view, or there isn't any activity going on at all.
Do I need to do something different with Safari?
Agora.io provided an auto-diagnostic page for their Web SDK, which may be useful for you:

The player was playing videos without any problem in all browsers until 2 days ago and then I observed that some videos won't play or won't load on chrome but all the videos play fine in internet explorer and safari browsers. Sometimes when I refresh page on chrome, some videos start to work but not others on the page.
my website url to check the problem is :
http://titanimplants.com/education/
Video player I am using : http://videojs.com/
Player Version: 5.0.2
Video format: mp4
Chrome browser Version 46.0.2490.80 m
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
First remark, why you use (and deactivate) 5.0.0/video.js?
