Hi @finfletc,

Please open file templates/ja_events_ii/acm/slideshow/tmpl/style-owl.php and go to the last line where you can see :

autoplay: true

change to (with uppercase, by default if set to true, the value is 5000 or you can use smaller value for shorter delay time) :

autoPlay: true

hello,
thanks for your reply,
is this the autoplay for the slideshow or the video?
I was asking about the video module on the home page of the ja eventsii template.

Hi @finfletc,

My bad, the code above work for the slideshow, the matter with video is much more complicated. Please stay tuned while I’m checking the workaround and I will reply back shortly.

Best regards,

Adam.

Hi @finfletc,

Try open file templatesja_events_iiacmvideotmplstyle-1.php and look for this code :

<div class="col-sm-5 video-player"><div class="video-wrapper">
    <?php if ($videoLink) { ?>
        <div id="videoplayer">
        <?php
            if (count($arr) == 2) :
            switch (trim($arr[0])) {
              case 'vimeo':
                ?>
                <iframe id="player1" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/<?php echo $video_link; ?>?api=1&amp;player_id=player1" width="630" height="354" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>
                <?php
                break;
              case 'youtube':
                ?>
                <img width="100%" height="100%" src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/<?php echo $video_link; ?>/maxresdefault.jpg" />
                <?php
                break;
              default:
                break;
            }
          endif;
        ?>
        </div>
        <a <?php if (count($arr) == 2) {if (trim($arr[0]) == 'youtube') {echo ' onclick="javideoPlay();" ';}} ?> title="Play" class="btn btn-border btn-border-inverse btn-rounded btn-play"><span class="sr-only">Watch the video</span><i class="fa fa-play"></i></a>
    <?php } ?>
</div></div>

then change as below :

<div class="col-sm-5 video-player"><div class="video-wrapper playing">
    <?php if ($videoLink) { ?>
        <iframe id="videoplayer" width="640" height="390" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/<?php echo $video_link; ?>?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
    <?php } ?>
</div></div>

I was looking fro a similar solution. This helps by making it auto start but I would like to work out how to get the video to auto loop as sometimes when the video ends it shows other videos from youtube and sometimes the images that appear don’t look good on the site.

Hello

and how to set lest the film loops?

As the movie ends YOUTUBE tells other films – I do not want such an effect.

I check Youtube API here but I could not find that option unfortunately.
