Audio playing before Video in Moodle 3.1

Audio playing before Video in Moodle 3.1

Hello all,

I am creating a course (Single Activity Form, File activity) in my local implementation of Moodle, but I'm having an issue. I've uploaded an mp4 (video with audio) to the course, but when I click the course after saving it, the audio starts playing without the video starting...is there a way to stop it from doing that?

I'm closing this. Apparently, it stopped doing it. I tested it in Firefox and it was playing audio as soon as I click on a course, But in IE, it didn't do that. I went back to Firefox, and it stopped doing that so I'm good. Thanks.

I had the same issue and it didn't ever stop. I saw there was a Tracker for a similar issue.

I was able to stop it in Firefox by doing the following:

1) In Firefox URL bar, type about:config
2) Click "I'll be careful!"
3) search for "autoplay"
4) change media.autoplay.enabled to "false"

Glad your problem cleared itself up, Prashant! I'm posting here in case other people experience the same problem.
