Fullscreen video background won't start in Safari

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Here again with another issue.
It seems that video background in home panel won't start. they freeze on the first frame.

this is the video

the full address was linked in the video id or url text box.

I saw that in google chrome it works perfectly. are there issues with safari?

the video is on youtube.

it's a reel made by a video maker, anyway it will not be the final video on the page, but i'm using it to test the template to let the customer see how it works, and now in safari does not work

Just so I can be precise when I ask the developer is this on a Mac?

Safari (typo) on windows hasn't been developed since 2012 so it can display this behaviour for me on sites

I didn't get your answer, are you asking me if i'm using a mac? yes i am. Macbook pro mid 2012.
but i'm deploying the website directly on the hosting server, nothing is running on my mac like xampp or other apps.
the safari i'm talking about it is on my mac, latest OSX latest version of safari.

sorry a typo

I'm a PC user and safari on a PC isn't upgraded any more so it doesn't work well for me

On many sites it hangs (despite having 16 GB of memory) so I was just wanting to check about this - as you are using a Mac it doesn't apply

I'll ask a developer to take a look

Cheers

Hi Marco,

I could have sworn this worked in testing but I can't even get the demo package for the script we used to work with youtube and safari. Chrome works fine of course.

Ive lodged a ticket with the developer of that script and will see what they say.

Thanks for your patience.

Hi Marco,

Actually I hit a wall with this.

You can see my support ticket over at GitHub:
github.com/okfocus/okvideo/issues/24#issuecomment-39921482

The developer cant see my issues - can you see them on this test site in SafarI?

bluebamboo.com.au/okvideo/demo/

Thanks

Sorry for being late.
I tried now the second link, i can just see the first two frames, sky starts to rotate then it freezes.
I can say that is the same problem.

Hi there,
Yes I still see the issue here as well and see it on the scripts demo too.

Do you have another system that uses safari where you can confirm?

I will be able to check on another Safari version in a few hours.
Thanks.
