iOS Safari – Playback speed of muted videos too fast after 2nd loop

Open mlinzner opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Expected Behavior

Muted videos (looping automatically or manual) should have stable playback speed even with repeated playbacks.

Actual Behavior

On iOS Safari 14.4 and 14.5 beta, muted videos have a strangely fast playback speed after 2nd video loop. Actual Behavior Video Example

Steps to Reproduce

  • Include vimeo video with any configuration causing it to be muted. E.g. muted=1, background=1, …
  • Start video and repeat playback 3 times (or wait for the autoloop to reach 3rd loop)

@acndr Unfortunately not. We ended up using the default HTML5 video player. In our case the loops do not have visible controls so no one really notices. The only downside is that Vimeo Pro is required for that, else we would be fine with Vimeo Plus.
