Hi,
Indeed we tested your videos from website and it is as you said, but we tested this using a default theme from WordPress and the videos was still not working, therefore it may be a general problem from IOS. If you want, you can make a test with this.
Thank you for your understanding!

Hi,
Unfortunately, yes, but I think that this problem will be fixed in the coming updates from WordPress or iOS.
Thank you for your understanding!

Hi Calin,

Yes, youtube videos working fine.

Please check in Settings -> Media in your blog’s Dashboard, and see if you do not have a check box for “Only display videos in free software formats” if yes uncheck it.
Let me know the results!

Hi,
Another suggestion is to check to be sure that the videos are set correctly https://wordpress.org/support/article/video-shortcode/ and then try a video shortcode plugin, for example I saw that some users use Mykraft Theme Responsive Video Shortcode plugin.
Maybe this can help you.

Hi,

I was trying to find some attachment videos at Newsmag demo, but no luck.
Can you please confirm that the attached videos on your website fork fine with IOS?

We are using your theme for years, and uploading videos, it was all fine until now.

I’m not sure that problem is at my side, it will be very nice if you can upload some video at the demo, so we can check.

Hi,
Is possible that this to be related to the WordPress version, because I see that you are using Newsmag 4.
We made some test with Newsmag v4.9.6 and the local videos are not loading on iOS therefore this situation is can be from the WordPress version.
So what I think that you can try, is to get a WP version under 5.5 and check to see if on this is working. Also another suggestion is to check this article https://helpcenter.qodeinteractive.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012629137-Issues-With-The-New-WordPress-5-5-5-6-and-5-7-Updates-And-How-To-Solve-Them and try the plugin from there.
Also I found another guide, please try the steps from here and check again with IOS https://clickshepherd.com/blog/solved-elegant-themes-divi-and-cloudflare-mp4-media-error-formats-not-supported-or-sources-not-found/
Thank you!

Hi,

Thank you, i have tried it all.
I have use plugin wp downgrade and downgrade WordPress to 10 versions, but noo luck 🙁
Then I try with Enable jQuery Migrate Helper

Last thing, I have updated my .htaccess….

It is maybe at ios side?

I don’t want to take you too much time, but do you guys have some test websites where you can test it?

I have also open post at stack overflow, but no response

Hi,
We have a live website only for tests and on it when we set a default theme (Twenty Twenty) and the problem persisted, therefore the problem is not related to our theme, it can be from WordPress or IOS.
Now if you downgrade the WordPress and the problems was still there, that it means that it can be only from IOS.
Thank you.
