Background Video Block not playing on mobile

Permalink Browser Info Environment
I have the Background Video Block that was included in a recent update on my homepage. It plays fine on a desktop but on mobile (I'm using iPhone), it does not autoplay. Thank you for your help in advance!

Great, thank you! I will install the latest update.

I also wanted to ask if you plan to update the theme for version 9 when it is released? If so, will that be a free update, or as an additional purchase. Just trying to plan ahead. Either way, I hope this them is made available for version 9, because it is a great theme and extremely useful and easy to use.

Yes we do have a plan to update our themes to V9, but we are not sure how this process will go yet, it needs to be coordinated with the PRB.

I just upgraded to the latest version. The background video block still doesn't autoplay for me on iPhone. You can take a look at the website, new.marketadvisorygroup.com, to see what's happening.

I think it's a cache issue, try to empty the cache and try again.

Actually I figured out why the issue persisted. I had a custom template on the block and the corrections you made were in the view.php file, which was overridden by the template. Didn't think to check that earlier. Works now! Sorry about the confusion, and thank you for the awesome support!
