Is it Possible to bypass the autoplay limitation on Safari Mobile. about popcorn-js HOT 7 CLOSED

Unfortunately we cannot work around that; I'd recommend putting the Popcorn.play() command in a touch or click event handler.

If you're writing an iOS app that uses UIWebViews, then there is a property you can set on the Web View to ignore that... I need to find that again.

UIWebView.allowsInlineMediaPlayback = YES;
UIWebView.mediaPlaybackRequiresUserAction = NO;

Is it possible to simulate that touch or click event by the programmatic way?

@lchenneberg no, it will still be prevented.

Is there is an other way to force the Play without requiring the action of the End User?
I'm programming a slideshow that content iframes, songs and videos... this limitation prevent the automation of the slideshow. I can't play automatically songs in my iFrame, because the src attribute is modified on every slide change and the medias are contained in that iframe.

I don't think so, no. There's even limitations on the number of simultaneous audio streams you can play at once... You'll crash Safari Mobile if you play more than one!

I'm not trying to play simutaneous audio stream. I'm loading dynamically each page in an iframe by changing the src attribute. the medias are incorporated in the page loaded in the iFrame and are using popcorn.js
