mouseover on mobile not working

[marcikola]

its behaving reallly weird and buggy. i just checked it again today and now all videos are playing, and once i hovered over them they stop playing. somehow every day its different idk

edit: now not anymore. but mobile still not working.

[marcikola]

would really appreciate an answer since i want to change the website back to the working version, but i also want you to see the bug.
just let me know if you checked it so i can reverse it.

hey sorry, was super busy with a website launch these days. let me check!

hmm seems to be an issue with lay themes caching. i will code a fix for this for the next update. meanwhile you can try and turn off "layout cache" in lay options. and see if it works then.

if after the next update, it still wont work please send your /wp-admin/ login info and a link to this topic to info@laytheme.com and then i will check it out more

already tried turning off layout cache, but then all thumbnails just keep playing and the hover doesn't work at all.

thanks! will do that.

[arminunruh]

alright, i will release the new update that may fix this today or tomorrow, then if it wont work u can send me the mail and then i'll try to be faster!

[arminunruh]

ok can u update now and check?

[marcikola]

thanks a lot! works well so far in my case. but i think the overall time to load the thumbnails a first time got way worse now.

whats still not working i think are the different functionalities "Behaviour on Mobile Devices". at least on my site its always just playing the thumbnail videos immediately, but for me thats fine.

[arminunruh]

alright i will analyze this more

[arminunruh]

in Lay Options, can you please enable video lazy loading and then also make sure the setting is enabled where it makes videos also lazy load on Safari?

For the next update, I'm preparing the functionality where the mouseover videos will also be lazy loaded when those settings are on.

Also, I will fix an issue where videos sometimes would be requested over HTTP instead of HTTPS on your site.

Then we will take a look and see how much loading has improved.

And then afterwards, we could think about using Bunny CDN, using videos hosted there, and also using HLS, which would load smaller videos for smaller screen sizes.
And Bunny CDN will, in general, load videos faster too because of their servers.

[marcikola]

thank you!
just activated lazy loading.
yes i'll keep bunny hosting in mind, i just wanted to see how well it works with all videos converted to webm and reduced filesizes.

[arminunruh]

ok now u can check!

released the update yesterday

[marcikola]

nice, thank you so much!
works very well so far, i'll let you know here if i encounter any issues

[marcikola]

when going back and forth between a single project and the projects overview page, the projects overview has to reload the thumbnails everytime it seems. is this normal behaviour?

[arminunruh]

what do you mean with reloading?
do you mean the videos dont appear immediately?

[marcikola]

yes thats what i meant

[arminunruh]

ok will be fixed with the next update, sorry about the late reply
