Pinned and aligned video not working on Chrome & Safari

My video experiments from last spring, which formerly worked on all three browsers on my Mac, now plays the two pinned and aligned .mp4 videos only on Firefox, not on Chrome or Safari:

http://www.allaroundnevada.com/wp-conte ... /combined/

The video by itself e.g. (http://www.allaroundnevada.com/wp-conte ... odelRR.mp4) DOES play on all the browsers. I also have alternate .webm videos available to the project.

Any idea what's changed?

Thanks,

Howard

Hi,
With Safari 11.0 by default it blocks auto play of media with sound.
Not tried video without sound but I guess it would work.
You need to press a button to play the video then it will work or if the second node has video, this also works.
It is just to stop media with sound playing on the landing page.

As you see from the above image, when visiting said website you need to right button click in the address bar to allow auto play.
