Auto play video
I'm auto playing a video in a wire and a black box flashes before the video plays. I removed a background color but the flash keeps happening. Is there a way to pre-load a video or somehow remove the blink?

nice to see you trying out the video tag. Can you give me a little more context into the problem? Is this video hosted in your Wire or through a URL? Are you using the seekto attribute?
I'm using a url to link to the video. Seekto works but it still flashes a black box before the video starts. Here is my code.
Thanks for the help.
Also you will need to add seekto on the videocontrol tag and not the video tag.
Also, do you know the framerate and encoding on your videos? Sometimes Apple doesn't seekto certain types correctly. That could be the issue as well?
The video has a 1 second flash of a black screen before playing and does the same thing with an onclick. The video plays well throughout. I tried to seekto, but every time it starts playing I get the flash. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
After talking with development about this issue, it isn't sure we can improve on this and avoid the flicker. Apple's video player does not allow us to run two videos back to back like this.
What I might suggest to achieve this scenario is to make a static image of the last frame of your first video and alpha it up and the video down when it is done playing. Then you should be able to alpha up the second video over the image without a flicker.
Thanks for the help!
