Any video not working

[MiloTheMurr]

Expected Behavior

Idk, the site to work?

Actual Behavior

Almost impossible to get a video to play on mobile (havent tried it on desktop). It stops, it starts, it resets the page, the video turns to a black square, the entire nine yards. Why is this even an issue? I’ve confirmed with others that this happens with them as well. It even resets the page for no reason. This def needs to be patched.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Play a video i guess

Why is this even an issue?

I have no idea, you're not giving me much information to work with. My initial guess would be that you are using some sort of Apple device, and those don't seem to like autoplay videos.

I am using apple, however if using apple products was the issue then my friends would be able to load videos just fine on their android’s, it doesn’t. So far weve tried 3 different browsers on 4 different phones. Google, safari and opera(just uses google anyway)

And the same videos don't have any issues on e621.net?

Nope

@avoonix Ive also been having this issue for a while, using the opera browser, windows 10, all mp4s are just grey. Only happened after the domain change.

turns out it was this "pitch changer" extension

injecting crossorigin="anonymous" into every mp4 on the site and making them not load
