Urgent! All(?) Videos not playing in eduOER #32

Closed lionick closed 5 years ago

lionick commented 5 years ago

I tried to open 3-4 videos from different providers and none played. I get this in console: NotAllowedError: The play method is not allowed by the user agent or the platform in the current context, possibly because the user denied permission. Please see it with priority.

Temporally we are going to disable autoplay in all browsers.
