Video placeholder image does not show on mobile
-
hi there.
i selected placeholder images for videos to show on mobile in case autoplay is not working.
… but those images don’t show.
instead it shows a random still — i guess the very first of the video.is that a bug or is there something wrong in my settings?
thanks for any hints in advance.
best!

"In case autoplay doesn't work"
Is autoplay not working?
When i choose a placeholder image for Mobile without Autoplay selected i get the image correctly.
Is it the first image of the Video because it's just a big file and it's waiting or loading for "Autoplay" ?
Also which area of the website should we be inspecting? 🔍

Best wishes
Richard
