Autoplay on iOS 10

[nickff]

Now that autoplay is possible on iOS 10 devices (see https://webkit.org/blog/6784/new-video-policies-for-ios/), will you be updating the plugin to allow for this? Or can the current version be modified in some way to accomplish this?

Let me know!

I have fixed this using below code. cause the autoplay is enable in ios 10 and above.

step 1: var UA = navigator.userAgent; //find the useragent

step 2: //implemented the vide plugin
$('.header-container').vide({ mp4: "../newVersion/Assets/Promo Video.mp4", poster: "../newVersion/Assets/Dabkick_API_Desktop.jpg" }, { volume: 0, loop: true, autoplay: true, resizing: true });

step 3: //to make the background video play in ipad with ios 10 and above only
if (UA.match(/iPad/)) { var video = $('.header-container').data('vide'); video.getVideoObject().css({'visiblity': 'visible', 'opacity' : 1}); }

The above code will make the video element visible during loading for ipads, and since autoplay is set to true the background video will start playing

@jatasya, thanks for your help. I reformed the code as such:

if (/iP(hone|od|ad)/.test(navigator.platform)) {
	
		var v = (navigator.appVersion).match(/OS (\d+)_(\d+)_?(\d+)?/);
		var ver = [parseInt(v[1], 10), parseInt(v[2], 10), parseInt(v[3] || 0, 10)];
		
		if (ver[0] >= 10) {
	
			// Do the magic to reveal the video

		}

	}
