Bug Report

Problem

I want to play/autoplay an inline video on a secondary screen (Airplay). Test Project: Looper.zip

What is expected to happen?

Once the extended screen (airplay) launches, the inline video should load and autoplay.

What does actually happen?

Once the extended screen (airplay) launches, the inline video appears to load, but does not autoplay.

Information

My config.xml contains the following preferences: <preference name="AllowInlineMediaPlayback" value="true" /> <preference name="MediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback" value="none" /> And my external page contains this tag: <video src="img/fireandiceocean.mp4" preload autoplay playsinline loop />

The preferences do not appear to apply to the secondary webview.

I've modified the cordova-plugin-wkwebview-external-screen plugin in WKWebViewExternalScreen.m with the following with no avail:

- (WKWebView*)getWebView {
    if (!self.externalWebView) {
        UIScreen* externalScreen = [[UIScreen screens] objectAtIndex: 1];
        CGRect screenBounds = externalScreen.bounds;

        self.externalWebView = [[WKWebView alloc] initWithFrame: screenBounds configuration: [[WKWebViewConfiguration alloc] init]];

        // I ADDED THESE TWO LINES
        self.externalWebView.configuration.allowsInlineMediaPlayback = YES;// Updated 'true' to 'YES'
        self.externalWebView.configuration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback = WKAudiovisualMediaTypeNone;

        self.externalWindow = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame: screenBounds];

        self.externalWindow.screen = externalScreen;
        self.externalWindow.clipsToBounds = YES;
        [self.externalWindow addSubview:self.externalWebView];
        [self.externalWindow makeKeyAndVisible];
        self.externalWindow.hidden = NO;
    }
    return self.externalWebView;
}

Any thoughts?
