html5视频自动播放在android 4.1中不起作用

Question

I'm stuck in a project where I want to auto play video using html5 video . It works fine on desktop browser, but on Android 4.1 default browser it requires me to "touch" (or click) video element (or play button)to play video.

I have tried number of ways:

• use trigger
• manually calling play function on page load
• using autoplay attribute

but none of above works in Android browser.

One solution which I think is to simulate click event on page load but is it programmatically possible to simulate click function?

Referring this answer .

For Android < 4.2.2 it seems that the last DOM event you get is loadeddata . You likely won't get canplaythrough . To autoplay, you then use javascript

var myvideo = document.getElementsByTagName('video')[0]; 
myvideo.play(); 

For Android 4.2.2+ all you need in your native code is

WebView.getSettings().setMediaPlaybackRequiresUserGesture(false);
