Flash not automatically playing

Post by AndyS »

Hi There

I am having a problem that I can't seem to research to a satisfactory answer.

I am using PWB 3.0.3.7. If I use IE11 on the machine in question I browse to the site\page in question and the Flash video starts playing with no issue.

If I browse to the same Site\Page using PWB the Flash video loads but does not automatically play. I can right click the video and choose play and it plays with no issue. Now I realise that this maybe a security option and I think I have been in IT long enough to know the thinking behind it. I was wondering if I can change this behaviour to automatically play the video's in question without having to right click and choose play?

Thanks

Scott

Would it be possible for us to test the URL directly?

You may want to try using a newer version of PWB. The current version is 3.05.0.

Or try using the Chrome variant, PWB CEF.

Thanks Scott

Here's the link. From tests it doesn't seem to be just this Flash video that PWB doesn't automatically play. I have tried it again and I get the same results. Plays automatically in IE but not PWB.
