Demo not working in Chromium

It seems that demo still doesn't work in Chromium Version 68.0.3440.106 (Official Build) Built on Ubuntu , running on LinuxMint 19 (64-bit)

That may be because of MP4s used... There's no webm fallback.

Similar issue in FireFox and Chrome on Windows 10. I had to visit the video before it began running in Chrome and FireFox spits this out in the console, "Autoplay is only allowed when approved by the user, the site is activated by the user, or media is muted."

All major browsers should support MP4 at this point, I have not needed to use fallbacks on my own projects. Even works in Edge.

Anyways, try muting the video and see if that helps. You can also remove the audio track using a freeware audio tool such as Resolve. Even if no audio is present, there is still an audio track in a lot of cases.
