HTML `<video>` Element Not Playing in Loop on iOS Devices - Seeking Solutions
I need help solving I'm trying to implement an HTML5 `<video>` element that should loop indefinitely on all devices... However, on iOS devices (specifically on iPhone and iPad), the video does not loop as expected. The video plays once and then stops, instead of restarting. I've set the `loop` attribute on the video tag, but it seems to be ignored. Here's the code I'm using: ```html <video id="myVideo" width="640" height="360" controls loop> <source src="path/to/video.mp4" type="video/mp4"> Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> ``` I ensured that the video file is compatible and plays correctly on other browsers like Chrome and Firefox. I've also tested this with multiple videos and they all have the same scenario on iOS. To troubleshoot, I tried using JavaScript to manually restart the video on the `ended` event: ```javascript const video = document.getElementById('myVideo'); video.addEventListener('ended', () => { video.currentTime = 0; video.play(); }); ``` While this workaround seems to work, it's not ideal and feels hacky. I also read that iOS has some peculiarities regarding video autoplay and loop functionality. I checked the console for any errors but nothing unusual pops up. Is there a proper way to ensure that the video loops on iOS devices without relying on JavaScript? Are there specific configurations or attributes I might be missing, or is this just an inherent limitation of the iOS browser? Any insights would be appreciated.
