Looking for video autoplay setting

Hello, 

Does anyone know if there is any way to turn off autoplay on the uploaded video training materials?

Yes the settings listed above are for the Course Autoplay not the video autoplay. Autoplay off will require the learner to start the course manually but the video modules will still start automatically.

That’s annoying as they are not really the same thing. Seems like a big overlook too as auto play video on the internet is more and more blocked for very valid reasons.

Do you mean an uploaded video that auto plays on course start? Or an embedded video? The answer above I believe just stops the course from playing right away but the video will still auto play on launch.

It would be fantastic if this was in the advanced settings, that as Super Admins we had the ability to set the default for all courses to be auto play or Not.

@TaviaRitter pretty sure there is on the advanced settings menu > e-learning > Directly play first item when entering a course

check that box and save.

there are, within each course.. 
I would like it if we were able to modify the Advanced Settings for the whole platform… so it’s one less thing to set up when creating a course:

@TaviaRitter the directions I gave was for the global advanced setting menu, not within a course, go check it out and see if it is what you want.

@Bfarkas - that’s why I shared the screen shot of my global advanced settings.. that option does not appear for me… does the screen look similar for you?

Ah, I missed the screenshot on the low bandwidth of this device. Its showing in that shot though, its the last checkbox in the options area, so should be doing that behavior by default and if not might want to ask support about it.

Hello I am having a similar problem, i want my training material (videos) to start automatically after one is finished. The autoplay seems to make the first video starts when you connect to the course page but i want the next ones to start in sequence as soon as one is finished. Is there a way to do that ?

I’ve  been looking for the same settings. This would be really useful for easier consumption of course contents.
