1.9.3 - Videos do not start playing automatically when opened in a browser

Post by adrem85 »

I have the "Auto play (video)" option enabled.

However, videos do not start playing automatically when opened in a browser. When I click on a thumbnail in the browser, I just get a black screen.

At the same time, if the video is opened via the "Open with" option in the Explorer context menu, auto-play works. Auto-play also works when scrolling through videos (forward/backward) in the browser.

Is this the case for everyone, or have I configured something incorrectly in the Settings?

Windows 11.
