Im recording 360° videos for my real estate agency and embed the videos on my wordpress website on the various listings. However after being uploading new videos for properties for about 3 days now. Ive realized they dont play correctly on iOS devices.
Basically you cant move the camera around with your finger or by moving the device around.
Android does work, but iOS doesnt. Tried different browsers too its something to do with how ioS or the player iOS uses when playing a youtube video.
How can I fix this problem? As its a massive issue that I must fix somehow.
Thanks in advance!

Video works fine on android/desktop/mac/windows but not if on iOS. Tested Safari and Chrome. Both didnt work.
This has been a limitation for some time on Mobile devices unfortunately - embedded 360 videos require the YouTube App to play. See note from YouTube (https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6178631?hl=en):
To watch 180° or 360° videos, you need the latest version of Chrome, Opera, Firefox, or MS Edge. On mobile devices, use the latest version of the YouTube app.
It does appear to work on Android devices when embedded now, but on iOS this seems to still be a restriction.
Hey everyone,
we have a serious issue with a website where we have an html5 video on the landingpage. It's a muted autoplay 5second loop that is supposed to play as a background-video on the site.
Now … we have two persons testing it, with the exact same device.
iPhoneX with Google Chrome (caches cleared and tested on both devices with Incognito and without)
On my phone the autplay works just fine. Video plays in the background.
On my collegues iPhoneX (same build, bought at the same date, same iOS version, same Browser (caches cleared)) it does not play automatically. He get's the play-icon.
Any idea why?
Thanks,
Matt
For everyone looking into that. The reason is iOS Low-Power-Mode. in low power mode the videos do not automatically play.
I have created some mpeg-dash videos using ffmpeg and mp4box. it is playing well on android and chrome browser, but not on ios and safari. as far as i know it should play on ios 10+ but its is not. can anyone help me with this?
I met a weird situation. Our iOS app embedded a video in a simple HTML 5 page, and we load it using javascript and UIWebView. It has been working fine until the upgrade of iOS 10.2, and it works fine on all other models of iPads but iPad 4th generation on 10.2. The video just cannot play. The 'play' event never fires. I did some preliminary research. I know iPad 4 is a 32-bit machine. I'm not sure if this has something to do with the weird behavior.
I don't know if this might be a relevant answer, but I had a similar situation when trying to play a video using AVPlayer.
It worked perfectly fine previously on iOS 8 and iOS 9, upgrade to iOS 10.2 and it worked on the simulator but not on devices.
Then I came across this link
h.264 MP4 Playable on iOS 9 No Longer Playable on iOS 10
From reading further, I see the following statements:
There has been a changed in how iOS validates video files.
In our case, we were encoding h.264 video with mp3 audio codec.
iOS 9 had no problem with the video files. iOS 10 does not like them and gave this error when trying to save to the camera roll "Sorry, this type of video cannot be saved to this device"
To fix my error, I just opened the video in Quicktime Player. I then went to File -> Export -> 1080p and then when I used this version of the video, it played in my app using iOS 10.2
Maybe your situation is different, but this helped in my experience.
I have googled the heck out of this question, but I have found no information that is at all helpful. My question is simple: why can't I play embedded Vimeo videos (using the universal iframe embed code) on iOS Simulator running an iPad in Safari?
Is it because this is not supported on iOS Simulator, or is it a more complex problem? Thanks
I had the same problem with my Vimeo embeds. I first noticed it in Safari on iPhone through the simulator. Then I tried it in Safari on the iPad (through the simulator). Finally, I tried just watching any video on the Vimeo site itself. None worked on the iPad/iPhone using the simulator. So I don't think the problem is specific to embeds, or any particular video. It's a problem with playing Vimeo videos in Safari on iOS, through the simulator, it seems.
Is this universal to every vimeo video you encounter or only specific ones you are trying to embed? For example, if you visit vimeo.com on mobile safari are you able to play any of their videos in iOS simulator?
If you can play videos on Vimeo.com then the problem lies with the specific videos you're trying to embed. Certain Vimeo videos uploaded >2 years ago did not process well when Vimeo made the switch to HTML5. This is rectified be re-uploading the videos back into Vimeo and letting them re-process. Then use the new generated embed code.
