How can I get help with troubleshooting HTML videos not working in Webflow?
If you're experiencing issues with HTML videos not working in Webflow, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can take to identify and resolve the problem. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you out:
Check your video source: Ensure that the video you're trying to embed is in a compatible format, such as MP4, WebM, or Ogg. Make sure that the file path to the video is correct as well.
Test different browsers: Try opening your website on different browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. This will help determine if the issue is browser-specific.
Check the video element settings: Make sure that the video element in Webflow is properly configured. Double-check that the video URL or source file is correctly added in the video element settings.
Verify autoplay settings: If you've enabled the "autoplay" feature for the video, be aware that autoplay is disabled on some browsers by default. Verify if the video plays with the autoplay feature disabled to determine if this is the cause of the issue.
Clear browser cache: Cached files can sometimes interfere with the playback of HTML videos. Clearing your browser cache can solve this problem. You can typically find this option in the browser's settings or preferences.
Check for conflicts or errors: Evaluate your page for any JavaScript or CSS conflicts that may be interfering with the video's playback. Inspect the browser's console for any error messages that could provide insights into the issue.
Contact Webflow support: If you've exhausted all troubleshooting steps and the issue still persists, it may be necessary to reach out to Webflow support for further assistance. They can provide additional guidance specific to your case.
By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to solve most HTML video issues in Webflow. Remember to test your website on different browsers and clear cache regularly to ensure smooth video playback.
