Video Does Not Play on Mobile Devices

  • Hello Joe,

    Thank you for your work on this plugin. My question is about video playing on mobile devices. I’ve run into this problem on an android phone, iPhone, and iPad. There is no issue on desktop browsers.

    On these mobile devices, the video box will appear, briefly show the iconic “play button” icon from YouTube, and then display a gray background, the youTube screen icon with 3 white dots within it. The video play bar displays 0:00 and will not play.

    During troubleshooting, I’ve switched to the 2015 default theme. I’ve also tried disabling plugins in case there is a conflict. No luck. Any ideas?

    Here is what I am running:
    PHP Version: 5.6.17
    Server Software: Apache

    Thank you for your time!

    Accessible Video Library doesn’t use an independent video player, so this should work the same as the native WordPress video player. If you add a video using the native WordPress video player into a post, does that play on mobile?

    To do that, add a shortcode like this: [video src="https://www.youtube.com/your-video"]
