    Hi,

    I still have the problem that the video in the background of the fullscreen row doesn't play in Safari browser. I added all three formats (mp4, webm and ogv) in 16:9 ratio.

    When there is only the mp4-file set the video plays in the safari browser on my laptop, but not on the mobile device. As soon as I add the webm-format video, it plays on my iPhone but not in the safari browser.

    I read all your advices on your support site but nothing helps.

    The video plays without problems in Google Chrome and Firefox browsers.

    Can you please help me? Thanks.

    Hi Andrew, 

    I followed all the instructions on your website. The only thing I don't know how to adjust is "to ensure that a power-saving or data-saving mode is not on" in Safari. I have not such a setting.

    Hello again,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Is the issue occurring on desktop and mobile devices or is it happening on mobile? I was able to open your site and the video was playing. Here's a screenshot of the same https://monosnap.com/file/WjyswkrlpRgxL7jMxklMjSdCho4IS9

    Could you try testing on a different device and let us know if this still occurs? You can also let us know the version of Safari you're using so we can check this out for you. 

    We look forward to your reply.

    Kind regards,
