  • weird problem

    From thedarkman@odemgoldenslippers@googlemail.com to alt.html on Wed Oct 5 10:57:01 2022
    From Newsgroup: alt.html

    I have a short music intro to the HomePage of my main website.

    https://www.infotextmanuscripts.org/ITMA.html

    The code is

    <div id="music"><embed src="green-day-homepage.mp3" autostart=true loop=false></div>

    recently it started playing twice and also made the code for the counter at the bottom of the page disappear. I want to reinsert the code. Can anyone tell me what is going on here and how to fix it?

    Thanks

    Windows 10 only records *.m4a video?


    if I use your code I get what looks like a blank video and I have to
    press its arrow for it to play

    There is no such element at the address you mentioned. No embed element, really. Did you accidentally post a wrong URL, or was this URL spamming?

    No, it is there: https://infotextmanuscripts.org/green-day-homepage.mp3 originally it was in the /djetc directory; I moved it, and it was all right for a day or two but then it started double playing and the counter disappeared.

    The direct link dopes have a mp3 file but you have not linked it on
    your homepage. That is what Jukka was saying. I checked as well and
    the source of your page doesn't show that file linked anywhere.<br>

    He was referring to the EMBED element. Not the MP3 file.

    There's no such element in that `/ITMA.html` page.

    I thought I'd made it clear. The mp3 is still on the site but I have removed the code because it was causing problems. This only started recently so I wonder what is the problem. I use Google Chrome for the most part. If it can't be sorted I will remove the audio file.
    I have one on another page https://www.infotextmanuscripts.org/candice-night-gallery/candice-temple-of.html
    there is no counter here but the file used to start playing automatically. Now it has to be started manually.

    It is usually better to post a URL that demonstrates the problem rather
    than one that does not.

    IrCOm not sure what counters you are talking about, but I did a bit of rCLresearchrCY: I wrote
    html video autoplay
    to Google and it told me, among other things, that people are asking
    rCLWhy is my video in HTML not Autoplaying?rCY
    and that an answer is
    rCLChrome does not allow autoplay if the video is not muted. So to
    autoplay video you need to set both autoplay and muted attribute.rCY

    And indeed, on Firefox, the video autoplays.

    Of course, if you want just background music for your page, this might
    be puzzling. Perhaps there is some other element that might make music autoplay, just as music. Perhaps not.

    If I were you, I would first ask myself rCLIrCOm I allowed to embed other peoplerCOs music on my page?rCY and then, if I find that I am, rCLHow should I give credits to the authors and the presenters of the music?rCY

    autoplay is a user setting in modern browsers and disabled by default.

    -a Autoplay availability As a general rule, you
    -a can assume that media will be allowed to autoplay
    -a only if at least one of the following is true:

    -a rCo The audio is muted or its volume is set to 0

    -a rCo The user has interacted with the site
    -a (by clicking, tapping, pressing keys, etc.)

    -a rCo If the site has been allowlisted; this may
    -a happen either automatically if the browser
    -a determines that the user engages with media
    -a frequently, or manually through preferences
    -a or other user interface features

    -a rCo If the autoplay feature policy is used to
    -a grant autoplay support to an <iframe> and its
    -a document.
