Symptom
Video added on the RMK site is not automatically playing on Google Chrome and/or Microsoft Edge.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Marketing
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to any RMK landing page with Video Component that has Auto Start Enabled on CSB.
- Video is NOT automatically playing when accessing the page.
Cause
Google Chrome has released a new feature regarding AutoPlay Policy for Video and Audio Media, also the latest version of Microsoft Edge limits videos from playing automatically by default which probably is causing the issue.
Resolution
This is an expected behavior and specifically applies to Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Video component with Auto Start on CSB will automatically play on other browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari etc. There are options available for a candidate to enable AutoPlay however, this is entirely a browser configuration.
Note: To more information check with Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome support.
