YouTube video as background video not playing, only thumbnail shows

Posted in: Newspaper

I have a row that I have created in tagdiv visual composer and I applied a YouTube video as a background video to show in the row, however it is not playing when I view it on the front-end, it only shows a thumbnail image for the video with the play icon over the thumbnail and it isn’t clickable. The video plays fine however when I preview the page in the tagdiv visual composer editor, but not when I view the page not from within the tagdiv visual composer editor.

The page I am referring to for this where this issue is occurring is at https://sandbox.genengnews.com/subscribe-to-gen-edge/ and the password to view the page is (case-sensitive): designGEN

Please help as I want to have a video background for this but it does not seem to want to play on the front-end.

Hello !

Please make sure that you are inserting the background video in the ROW as you can see here: https://www.screencast.com/t/moOsUKq0p

It just displays the thumbnail image of the video on the page as the background for the row, it does not play the video.
