Linked video now showing black screen

[Stevie]

Anyone any idea why linked video has no preview now just a black screen ?

Any chance it could be the Auto Play option in your browser got changed ?

I have no idea, it used to display the start of all the video now just black. How would I check that, I use Safari.

I'm a FireFox user, but here is a link for that option in Safari

I have just enabled autoplay for the site but still the same, strange been working fine for years.

This issue is also happening here and I haven't had a chance to look.

This might be due to the patches? Have you posted in vbulletin.com Stevie?

This is definitely not because of that. The video thumbnail image is missing and the page has not loaded the actual video yet. It will only load the actual video when you click the Play button.

No Glenn I haven't. I always come here first.

Yes the same has happened on my video wall. All the previews have gone and all black screens

Hmmm, not a problem on my site running 5.5.3 Patch Level 2.

Preview still shows: https://extremehw.net/forum/main-for...mehw-podcast-5

Could this be a 5.5.4 issue then?

Possibly but hoping not as this would be a shame. Vbulletin runs 5.5.4, may query them to test it. Is it an issue here ?

[panzerscope]

Ran a test on VB as per : https://forum.vbulletin.com/forum/vb...96#post4424196

Video preview image shows fine and they run 5.5.4 PL2

Lets see if it works here :

**EDIT** Nope seems to be an issue here oddly.

Very strange, could it be something we have in CSS

[Stevie]

My video wall is the same
