Video thumbnails (Chrome)
Hey guys
I have had this bug for a little while now and all updates don't seem to correct the issue.
Using a short mp4 file for thumbnails doesn't work for me in Chrome. I think its a simple auto play function that doesn't allow it to work because I am able to right click the thumbnail to see controls and play it manually.
Any help on the issue would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hi Adam,
I also use Chrome and for me it works.
Can you inspect the element and see if it looks the same like here:

Hey Marius
Thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated. Using inspect element shows exactly the same result as your screenshot.
Hi Adam!
Best is if you write an email to armin.unruh@gmail.com and include your username, password and a link to this conversation.
Best!

Hey Guys!
The same is happening to me, have you guys could fix it?
Hi Silviaperez!
Sure! We are on it! Can you also write Armin about it?
Best!
Marius
PS: Can you both also post a link to the website? Otherwise it will be difficult to check.
Hi,
The same is happening to me. The website is under maintenance mode so I can't share it yet.
Can I see some example of the video thumbnail working good? Should it start only when hover on it?
Thanks.
Dear @huertels
can you post a link to your website?
On my temporary testing page you can see the video-thumbnail working well on autoplay:

It starts when it is loaded. Not on hover.

Please post a URL to where you have the problem, I can't reproduce the problem
As I said, the website is under maintenance mode so even if I share it, you won't be able to see it unless I give you access to WP. I sent you an email.
This is kind of weird too. If I don't have a Project Thumbnail (.jpg) it doesn't allow me to update or publish the project, even if I have a Project Thumbnail Video (.mp4).
yes u always need a project thumbnail, regardless of whether u use a video or not
i solved the video problem on your page and updated your website with the fix. the fix will be released for others with the next update :))
Thank you very much! As a recommendation for future updates, the client is asking for pause the autoplay when the mouse is not over.
This is a good example: http://manson.st/work
