Hey,
It’s surprising that revolution slider video ( youtube ) is playing very well on the desktop mode but not in tablet or mobile . What’s wrong with it. Here is the front page URL: https://www.elites.tomatoheart.com/

Please help me with this,

Thank you.

Hello,

Please also test this on a default theme to see if the slider works properly. There could be a setting somewhere ins the slider settings.
If on the default theme the slider is able to play the video on tables and mobiles, then please try to update your theme to the latest version and test the slider again.
Let us know how it goes.

Thank you!

Hi Bogdan, Probably it’s a well-known issue as due to some reason chrome or any other browser do not allow autoplay of videos on mobile. There are various search results on Google about this.

Revolution Slider website also has something on this: https://www.themepunch.com/faq/video-not-showing-up-on-mobile/

I tried this method as well, but it didn’t work.

Have you ever been able to auto play videos as background in your testing?

Please let me know if you find any solution to this.

Thank you.
